Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Late-September events in Wennington see sunset at about 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, our pitch needs and the paperwork your event asks for.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Let us know the timings for the day

FAQs for Wennington
Do you come to school fairs around Wennington?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Which station is closest to Wennington?
The closest is Rainham (Essex) station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We serve vegan fillings such as black beans or spiced mushrooms.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
- Put picnic tables near the traders
We arrive in the agreed set-up window.
Loaded nachos for sharing.

Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Food that sits in a hot cabinet isn’t much to look at. Our food is made to order. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
