Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms are agreed with you.
What happens on the day
Here’s how the day typically runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. Evenings in Chessington stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. Festoon lights or floodlights help once it gets dark.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Give us a contact for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Chessington questions
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater afterwards?
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 cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we can’t promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Can you run a bar?
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 go through the licensing with you.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.

Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
Chessington is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Count children separately
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
When service ends, we pack down and clear our area, leaving the space as we found it.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will set out what we can do in your quote.
How it compares
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
