Shackleford parties: what to know
Shackleford is about 5 miles south-west of Guildford, in Surrey. For a party in Shackleford, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access in and around Shackleford. We serve in 395 places in Surrey, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Rail travellers will be glad to hear that Godalming station is about 2.2 miles away. Once the service at a church like Church of St Mary is over, the party can move somewhere with space for the truck and a queue. For a party in the countryside, the Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 7 miles. Rural gardens and fields work well for a truck, given firm ground and a way in.

Your questions about Mexican party catering in Shackleford
Do you come out to small places like Shackleford?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Middlebriars Wood?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, Surrey included. Find your area.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Planning the serving area
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
