Book Mexican street food in Swanscombe
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

A Mexican food truck pulls a crowd at any outdoor event. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders are served quickly from the hatch.

Common questions in Swanscombe
How far is Swanscombe from central London?
It is about 17 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is it possible to have you in Castle Hill Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Tell us about your event, and we’ll reply with our availability and what we need.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Is there a vegan option at your stall?
Yes. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors.
Will there be long queues?
Tell us expected visitor numbers and we will plan for peak times.
