How it works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. At midsummer, events in Tooting stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- You send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- You get our stall menu, what we need at the pitch and the paperwork you request.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Before we arrive
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Running an event in Tooting
Tooting is about 3 miles south-west of Stockwell, in Greater London. For an event in Tooting, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Tooting. Tooting is one of 764 places in Greater London where we can bring Mexican street food. We cater right across the region, from Tooting to London (about 6 miles away).
Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as St Boniface RC Primary School, a busy corner. A fundraiser for a church like St Augustine might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer.
Here we cover the SW17, SW19 and CR4 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Streets in the area include Vant Road, Byton Road and Avarn Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. For events just outside Tooting, we cover Tooting Bec (1 mile north-west), Colliers Wood (1 mile south), Furzedown (1 mile east), Streatham Park (1 mile east) and Summerstown (1 mile north-west).

Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Your trader pack and site rules
- A level pitch on firm ground
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
London streets around Tooting 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.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Planners, venues and businesses
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
