Mexican catering for Woodmansterne events
Catering an event in Woodmansterne
Woodmansterne is about 1 mile west of Coulsdon, in Surrey. For an event in Woodmansterne, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Woodmansterne. Woodmansterne is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey we cover. Our nearest city page is London, about 13 miles away.
If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Chipstead Valley Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Thinking of an event in Fames Rough? Public parks generally need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first. Venues in and around the Surrey Hills National Landscape, within about 8 miles of Woodmansterne, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book.

About our Mexican catering in Woodmansterne
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Woodmansterne and nearby: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding. We serve burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and tacos, which works well for staff parties and office lunches and christenings and family parties.
For a place the size of Woodmansterne, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. A December event in Woodmansterne will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
