Mexican street food near Upchurch
Mexican street food in Upchurch, from our food truck or trailer
Festivals, fairs, markets and school fairs are all on our list. We serve loaded nachos, quesadillas and tacos, and it suits food markets and open days and community events.
Near Upchurch, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food truck is a big help. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Why choose Mexican street food in Upchurch?
One trader, several diets, which saves pitches.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:

- Parking and the route in
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food

The process
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Evening events in Upchurch have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer; beyond that, ask the organiser how the site will be lit.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Share the running order, including any speeches
