Questions from Frostlane
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you trade at a school fair in Frostlane?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Do you do crew catering?
We can. We can cook for crew, volunteers or a hospitality area as well as, or instead of, a public stall.
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.
How much does Mexican street food cost in Frostlane?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How our Mexican street food works in Frostlane
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, so service stays quick through busy periods. On the menu are vegan tacos, tacos and quesadillas, which works well for school and charity events and food and music festivals.
At a fête or field event near Frostlane, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Flat, firm ground
- The event’s site rules and timings
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
