Your questions about food truck hire in Sandy Cross
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Richards Church?
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.
How far is Sandy Cross from central London?
About 40 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
How much does food truck hire cost?
We do not publish set prices, because each hire is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
For event organisers in Sandy Cross
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. Planning a private evening event in Sandy Cross? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June. Once it’s dark, some lighting near the hatch makes ordering easier.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- Before the day, we agree the spot, the way in, power and water.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Ask the venue about power and water

Events we cater in Sandy Cross

- Winter staff parties
- Private outdoor parties
- Milestone birthdays
- Summer parties at home
When the service is at a church such as St Richards Church, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.

- The caterer’s food hygiene rating
- Payment terms and deposit

Food truck hire or something else?

What we offer in Sandy Cross
- Allergen-aware menus
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
- A clear quote

DIY taco night or 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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- A spot away from neighbours
- A parking suspension, where a street spot is needed
- A way in wide and high enough for the vehicle
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
