Mexican street food in Wallington, from our food truck or trailer
The menu is agreed with organisers, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. We serve burrito bowls, tacos and quesadillas, and it’s a good fit for street food and farmers’ markets and outdoor screenings.
Events near Wallington are often volunteer-run, so we agree pitch, access and power with the organiser in advance. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

Wallington: your questions answered
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Wallington?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Which station should guests use for Wallington?
Guests can use Fareham station, about 1 mile west of Wallington.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Can you send us your trader documents?
Share your trader requirements.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
