You can’t just pop up and start serving food on a street or car park.
You need permission from the landowner and often a licence from the local council.
Street trading licences are required in many towns/cities.
Check for rules at private markets or festivals.
Pitch fees, setup times, and waste policies vary by area.

Street food traders including pop-ups and food trucks now have a place in a massive market worth £1.2 billion. There are over 7,000 street food vans in the UK and that number has grown by 20% year on year. The whole street food thing was a bit of a niche market, but now it has pretty much become part of British culture. Street food vendors spotted a gap in the dining market where they could go mobile and safely serve food, unlike indoor food venues which were not permitted to open. Food from street food vendors tends to be competitively priced. Cuisine from food trucks and street vendors that is lower in cost but as tasty as restaurant offerings, can offer a perfect alternative. The growth of street food looks set to continue.
