Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:

How our Mexican street food works in Staplefield
Organisers can book us as a public stall or to feed crew, volunteers and hospitality areas. It works well for community events and open days and music and food festivals, with loaded nachos, quesadillas and burritos.
Rural events near Staplefield can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Mexican street food or something else?
Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot burrito or taco bowl keeps crew going. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Questions from Staplefield
How far is Staplefield from central London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you trade at a school fair in Staplefield?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you cater in Staplefield?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Staplefield and across West Sussex. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you run a bar at festivals?
That depends on licensing. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Planning the serving area
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- Your trader pack and site rules
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

How the day works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area.

- We check your dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
