Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Share your running order
We arrive in the agreed window and park where we’ve arranged. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can join the truck.
Food truck hire for your event in Stanmer
We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. We serve burritos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, and it suits leaving parties and family celebrations.
In a small place like Stanmer, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
