FAQs for Box Hill
Do you come to events in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
We’re having a ceremony at St. Andrew's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned with you in advance, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should contact us before the event.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Is the truck suitable for a large group?
Hiring the truck or trailer typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
A private hire is booked and quoted for you, and we don’t sell to the public. Event organisers should see street food for festivals.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
