FAQs for Cobham
How far is Cobham from London?
It is about 23 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is it possible to have you in Jeskyns?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Can children have drinks from the bar?
Always. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
