Around Tadworth, a hired food truck can serve in a garden, a field or a hall car park. Narrow roads and soft ground are fine if we know about them. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. At midsummer, it stays light in Tadworth until about 9:20pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:05pm. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day

Common questions in Tadworth
Which station is closest to Tadworth?
Guests can use Tadworth station, about 0.5 miles south-west of Tadworth.
We are having a ceremony at Church of the Good Shepherd: 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 will check the access.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will talk licensing through with you.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
How much is food truck hire?
There’s no fixed price list, as every booking is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
Can we add drinks?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar and alcohol-free choices. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we’ll check with you.
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). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- Distance from houses and windows
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Why choose food truck hire in Tadworth?
It’s a private hire, so there are no public queues and the menu is set for your guests.
A truck or trailer suits almost any gathering. In Tadworth, you could book us for events such as:
- Big birthdays

A food truck in Merland Rise Recreational Ground would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
The menu, item by item
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings in a bowl.
Quesadillas
Crisp tortillas folded round melted cheese, cut into wedges.
Why choose food truck hire in Tadworth?
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Agree service times with us
- Check early that your venue allows food trucks
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
We can serve through rain, but guests will want a covered area to eat.
