Questions from Upper Ruxley
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Upper Ruxley?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Tell us about your event, and we’ll confirm availability and requirements.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Put picnic tables near the traders
We keep our pitch tidy and safe.

How the day works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. At midsummer, events in Upper Ruxley stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Name one person we can ask on the day

How it compares
A single pizza or burger stall cannot cover every visitor. Tacos, burritos, bowls and nachos give choice. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

What affects the price in Upper Ruxley

- Guest numbers
- Parking and the route in
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Timings and hours
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Your date and when you want service to start
- The address or venue name
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, send a quick message through our quote form.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
London streets around Upper Ruxley 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.
