Food truck hire for your event in Oxted
Pair the truck with our Mexican drinks bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We can add a taco-bar station next to the truck. For summer parties at home and launch events, we’ll put together a menu of vegan tacos, quesadillas and burrito bowls for your guests.
For a place the size of Oxted, food truck hire at your own home is often simplest: no venue to book, and guests order straight from the hatch. Let us know about the route to the house. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What’s on the menu
Salsas and guacamole
Guests can add salsa and guacamole to taste.
Quesadillas
Crisp tortillas folded round melted cheese, cut into wedges.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. A food truck arrives as a kitchen and serves from the hatch. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Oxted questions
What’s the nearest station to Oxted for guests?
Hurst Green station, about 0.5 miles south-east of the centre.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Agatha's Hall?
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 we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you cover Oxted?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Oxted. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Is the food very hot?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
How the day works
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. Late-September events in Oxted see sunset at about 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- Together we plan dishes that cover your guests’ diets.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
