Your questions about Mexican street food in Surrey Quays
What about parking in Surrey Quays?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Could you serve in Deptford Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you send us your trader documents?
Send your requirements and we will respond with our documents.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
We can. Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
- Flat, firm ground
- Clear information on power, water and waste
London streets around Surrey Quays can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
