How our food truck hire works in Tandridge
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. At staff summer parties and back-garden parties, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos from the hatch and burritos and more.
In a small place like Tandridge, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Think about cover if the weather turns
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Send allergy details in writing
- Let us know who is coeliac
Service starts when your timings say.
Our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can join the truck, with licensing checked with you.

Tandridge questions
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Tandridge?
Yes, depending on the date. For a private or work event in a village or hamlet, the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you come to Tandridge?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Tandridge is within our area and the rest of Surrey. To check your date, send a quick message through our quote form.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can we hire a bar too?
Our Mexican drinks bar can be added to a truck booking, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Licensing is checked with you.
Do you cater for dietary needs?
We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
For event organisers in Tandridge
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

How it works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. At midsummer, it stays light in Tandridge until about 9:20pm, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
