How our Mexican catering works in Durford Wood
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats, which suits informal events. Popular choices include burritos, loaded nachos and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for weddings, day or evening and fairs and festivals.
In a hamlet or village like Durford Wood, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Questions from Durford Wood
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Which station should guests use for Durford Wood?
Liss station, about 1 mile north of the centre.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we cannot promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.
Can you set up at our venue?
We need level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water when you book.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
Do you cater in Durford Wood?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Durford Wood and the rest of Hampshire. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Before you choose a spot
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
