Planning an event in Ram Lane?
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Winter evenings in Ram Lane close in by about 3:50pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:15pm.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches

Mexican catering in Ram Lane, from our food truck or trailer
We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, while the salsas and guacamole are made fresh. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. Popular choices include burrito bowls, tacos and burritos, which works well for office lunches and team days and family gatherings and christenings.
In a rural place like Ram Lane, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

What affects the price in Ram Lane
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

- What’s on the menu

These details help us quote quickly:
- The date and rough timings

- The address or venue name
- What power and water the site has
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. Just tell us about it on our contact page.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Count children separately
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away, leaving the space as we found it.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
Comparing your options
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
