Alfold Crossways questions
Is it possible to have you in Fir Tree Copse?
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.
Will you travel to a small place like Alfold Crossways?
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.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Can you handle a lunchtime rush?
Fillings are cooked ahead and kept hot, so orders are assembled quickly.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. 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.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
