What else we do in Upper Ifield
Upper Ifield questions
What’s the nearest station to Upper Ifield for guests?
Guests can use Higham station, about 2.2 miles north-east of Upper Ifield.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Upper Ifield?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you need power?
We will confirm our needs once we know the pitch details, including power and water.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
