Questions from Lymington
Could you come to a seaside event near Lymington?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you do a drinks bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will go through the licensing with you before the day.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will talk licensing through with you and your venue.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How our Mexican catering works in Lymington
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too. At weddings, day or evening and leaving parties, we can serve burritos, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole and more.
In Lymington, an event with a food truck normally means a garden with drive access, a hall or club with a car park, or a hired venue. Each can work, as long as the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Where the truck can go in Lymington
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

What’s on the menu
Loaded nachos
Loaded nachos are perfect for sharing, whether as a starter or a late bite. Dairy-free versions can be planned.
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are simple and comforting.
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start.
