How our Mexican street food works in Guildford
We follow your site rules, from arrival times to waste. At school fairs and fundraisers and food markets, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, tacos and vegan tacos and more.
For events in Guildford, a Mexican street-food truck gives organisers one trader for several diets. Send us details of the pitch and access. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Confirm power and water with traders
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
Allergen details are on hand for every dish, and the menu shows vegan and gluten-free options.
Nachos for groups.
Popular choices
Vegan tacos
A real choice for vegans.
Quesadillas
Crisp quesadillas.
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. A photo of the space helps. A December market in Guildford loses the light at about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Ask the venue about power and water

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
