Planning a food truck in Holmethorpe
Holmethorpe is about 1 mile north-east of Redhill, in Surrey. Anywhere in RH1, we can serve your guests, as long as there is access. We cater in 395 places across Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for London, about 17 miles away.
A gathering in Nutfield Marshes would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early. For a christening or wedding at a church such as Holy Trinity, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Venues in and around the Surrey Hills National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Holmethorpe, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before booking.
Anywhere in RH1 and RH9, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. We can cater an event on streets such as Mill Lane, Devon Road and Orpin Road or the roads around them. Neighbouring places where we cater events include South Merstham (1 mile north-east), Redhill (1 mile south-west), Gatton (1 mile north-west), Nutfield (1 mile south-east) and Merstham (1 mile north). Within a short drive, we also cover Epsom (8 miles north-west), Horley (5 miles south), Ewell (8 miles north-west), Walton-on-Thames (14 miles north-west), Caterham (4 miles north-east) and Dorking (8 miles west).
A little further out are East Surrey Hospital (2.2 miles south) and The Belfry (0.9 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include Colley Hill and Reigate Heath.
- Schools near Holmethorpe include Lime Tree Primary School (under half a mile north) and The Carrington School (0.6 miles south)
- Nearby, you will find Inn on the Pond (1 mile east)
Mexican catering in Holmethorpe, served fresh
Keep it simple or go further: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too. It works well for company summer parties and engagement and anniversary parties, with loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a smaller place like Holmethorpe, your own garden, drive or a local hall is often the simplest option: no venue hire, and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Let us know about the route to the house. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a picture of the space if you are unsure. Evenings in Holmethorpe stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.

How it compares

Why us?
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Book food, drinks or both

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so everything goes out hot.
