Mexican catering near Hydestile
Mexican catering in Hydestile, from our food truck or trailer
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our food truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. You do not need a kitchen at the venue. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and tacos, and it’s a good fit for garden parties and fundraisers and school events.
In a hamlet or village like Hydestile, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. In Hydestile, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.

Common questions in Hydestile
We are having a ceremony at Hambledon Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Do you come to events in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What food do you serve?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. Our sample menu has more detail.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
What are your prices?
Every event is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
