Mexican street food in Ashley, served fresh
Our food is easy to eat standing up or on the grass, which suits festival crowds. It works well for summer fairs and fêtes and community days, serving tacos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls.
Events near Ashley are often volunteer-run, so we agree pitch, access and power with the organiser in advance. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Where the truck can go in Ashley
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Flat, firm ground
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Running an event in Ashley
Ashley is about 4 miles west of Lymington, in Hampshire. Tell us where your event in Ashley will be, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up. We serve in all 683 towns and villages across Hampshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 15 miles away.
For visitors coming by rail, New Milton station is about 0.7 miles away. A fundraiser for a church like St. Peter's Church might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. Organisers near the New Forest National Park, within about 5 miles of Ashley, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets. Within about 5 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
This part of Hampshire takes in BH25 and SO41. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Franklin Road, Miller Close and Manor Road or the roads around them.

For event organisers in Ashley
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
What happens on the day
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. By late September, it’s dark in Ashley at around 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
