FAQs for Great Bookham
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.
What’s the nearest station to Great Bookham for guests?
Guests can use Bookham station, about 0.8 miles north-west of Great Bookham.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
What food do you serve?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. See our sample menu.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
