Comment | They are a thing, but are licenced and I gather the council is very restrictive on the number of street vendor licences they give out. Big difference between here and US is simply space - there aren't many places to put a van that isn't going to be annoying someone with its diesel generator or whatever. This is why you often find them on industrial estates where it isn't an issue.
I think a lot of folk set up food vans just to tour around doing festivals and events, rather than seeking out a permanent pitch |
