Planning a party in Shortheath

Shortheath is about 1 mile south-west of Farnham, in Surrey. Whether your party is in the middle of Shortheath or on the outskirts, Mexican party catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cater in 395 places in Surrey, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Shortheath to Guildford (about 11 miles away).

If Underdown nature reserve is on your list, ask the people who run it about vehicles and food sales before you send invitations. If guests are coming by rail, the nearest station is Farnham station, about 1.3 miles north-east. 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.

We cater parties across GU9 and GU10 and the streets around it. Whether your party is on Shortheath Road, Little Thurbans Close and Sunnydell Lane or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican party catering there, given access. Shortheath sits on or near the B3384, which makes travel to your party easy. Close by, we cover parties in Wrecclesham (1 mile west), Boundstone (1 mile south), Rowledge (1 mile south-west), Holt Pound (1 mile south-west) and Bucks Horn Oak (2 miles south-west). Further out, we also cater in Guildford (11 miles east), Woking (13 miles north-east), Camberley (10 miles north), Frimley (9 miles north-east), Haslemere (8 miles south-east) and Cranleigh (15 miles east).

A little further out are Farnham Castle (1.6 miles north) and Museum of Farnham (1.2 miles north). Not far away are Aunt's Pool and Farnham Heath.

  • Nearby schools include Weydon School (0.5 miles north-west) and Weydon School (0.5 miles north-west)

Questions from Shortheath

Is Shortheath close to London?

About 37 miles from central London.

Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

Can guests build their own tacos?

Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.

Do you do parties at home?

It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

When should I book?

As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.

Where do you cater?

London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.

Can I do a taco night myself?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

How it compares

Compared with a barbecue, a food truck serves steadily from the start, and nobody is stuck at the grill. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

The process

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. A party in Shortheath in late May has daylight until about 8:55pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.

  1. Tell us when and where, and how many.
  2. You get a menu and a quote.
  3. We check access and arrive before your guests.
  4. Food is served from the hatch or the taco bar.
  5. We clear our area when service ends.

Getting ready for the day
