Common questions in Smallfield
What’s the nearest station to Smallfield for guests?
Guests can use Horley station, about 2 miles west of Smallfield.
Is Smallfield close to London?
About 23 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you check ages at the bar?
Responsible serving comes first: under-18s get alcohol-free drinks only, and we offer water and alcohol-free choices throughout.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Will someone run the bar?
We bring bar staff, and serve throughout the agreed hours.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
