About our Mexican street food in Grafham

At a fête or field event near Grafham, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Grafham events: pitches and permissions
Grafham is about 6 miles south of Guildford, in Surrey. Whether your event is in the middle of Grafham or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in 395 places across Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Grafham to Guildford (about 6 miles away).
Organisers looking at Cucknell's Wood as a site should start with the landowner, who sets the rules for traders and vehicles. For a public event, it helps to tell people that the nearest station is Chilworth station, about 3.5 miles north. Shows and fairs in the Surrey Hills National Landscape, about 5 miles from Grafham at most, sometimes have rules on where traders can drive. Send us the site plan and we’ll plan around it.
We serve at events all over the GU5 postcode area and the streets around it. If your venue is just outside Grafham, we also cover Birtley Green (1 mile north), Shamley Green (1 mile north), Thorncombe Street (1 mile west), Stroud Common (1 mile north-east) and Rowly (2 miles east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Guildford (6 miles north), Woking (11 miles north), Camberley (14 miles north-west), Farnham (11 miles west), Reigate (15 miles east) and Dorking (10 miles north-east).
Nearby you’ll also find Godalming Museum (3.6 miles north-west) and Guildford Castle (4.9 miles north). Not far away are St Martha's Hill and Colyer's Hanger and Lower Lake.
How it compares
Some traders struggle with vegan and gluten-free visitors. Our menu includes vegan and gluten-free options. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Your questions about Mexican street food in Grafham
Do you come out to small places like Grafham?
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.
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.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you bring margaritas?
It depends on the event’s licence. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
What we need at the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Trader information and site rules
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table.
