Interactive map: The ultimate street food guide to Tayside and Fife

As we enter into a new era of hospitality and eating out, street food has fast become a go-to for many of us looking to get a bite from cultures across the world.

When the coronavirus pandemic first hit and we couldn’t eat out in restaurants, masses of us turned to our beloved takeaways and food trucks for a bite to eat.

Being able to operate safely outside meant there was room for these businesses to grow, and with the pandemic proving challenging for those who operate indoors, many of those outdoor operators have flourished during this time of opportunity, enticing new customers to their vans and pop-ups.
