Mexican street food for your event in Irons Bottom
Crew and volunteer meals are timed to suit you, keeping your team going. It suits fundraisers and fêtes and food markets, serving burritos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
Rural events near Irons Bottom can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Before you choose a spot
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- Spacing from tents and other structures
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.
How it works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. By late September, it’s dark in Irons Bottom at around 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Questions from Irons Bottom
Which station is closest to Irons Bottom?
Guests can use Salfords station, about 2.1 miles east of Irons Bottom.
Do you come to events in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you come to Irons Bottom?
We do. Irons Bottom is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Can you serve alcohol at our event?
We can add our drinks bar if the event is licensed for it. Licensing is checked with you first.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.

Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Venues often have their own rules about 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.
Dietary needs and planning tips

- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Check every diet is covered by the line-up
