Planning a food truck in Poulner
Poulner is about 1 mile north-east of Ringwood, in Hampshire. For Mexican catering in Poulner, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. Poulner is one of 683 places in Hampshire where we can bring Mexican catering. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Poulner to Southampton (about 17 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as St John the Baptist, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. Nearby historic houses include Avon Tyrrell House (3.8 miles south). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before booking one. With the New Forest National Park about 4 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Poulner. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.

What Mexican catering costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- How many staff you need
- Timings and hours
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Travel, parking and access
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The address or venue name
- What you’d like on the menu
The quickest way to a quote is to drop us a line using the enquiry form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Mention any other caterers or courses
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can check before they order.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions in Poulner
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John the Baptist?
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.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you cover Poulner?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Poulner and across Hampshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Step by step
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. In Poulner, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:05pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Before the day, we agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Tell us what power and water the site has
Ask for a quote
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
