Mexican street food for Winnersh events
About our Mexican street food in Winnersh
The menu is agreed with organisers, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. It suits agricultural and county shows and food and music festivals, with vegan tacos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
Around Winnersh, a fête or summer fair suits a food truck. Send us the pitch and access details. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Step by step
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Late-September events in Winnersh see sunset at about 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. 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 set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
Getting a price
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
Planning help
Before you choose a spot
Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- Your trader pack and site rules
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
