Your questions about Mexican street food in Badshot Lea
What’s the nearest station to Badshot Lea for guests?
Aldershot station, about 1.2 miles north of the centre.
Do you cater in villages like Badshot Lea?
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 cater for crew and volunteers?
Yes, at set times to suit your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the event needs and we’ll send the paperwork your event asks for.
Can you bring margaritas?
We can add our drinks bar if the event is licensed for it. We will go through the licensing with you.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
