What happens on the day

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. Christmas markets in Upper Norwood trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.

  1. Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
  2. You get our stall menu, what we need at the pitch and the paperwork you request.
  3. On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
  4. We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
  5. When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Give us a contact for the day

Can I do a taco night myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Mexican street food or something else?

Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. A Mexican trader adds variety to a food line-up. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
