Running an event in Lyne
Lyne is about 3 miles south of Egham, in Surrey. We bring Mexican street food to homes, gardens and venues in Lyne. Lyne is one of 395 places in Surrey where we can bring Mexican street food. Our nearest city page is Guildford, about 10 miles away.
A market or festival in Riverside Walk would be licensed by whoever manages the park, and we will provide our part of the paperwork. Organisers of a summer fête for a church such as Church of Holy Trinity could add tacos and burritos alongside the bric-a-brac.
We serve at events all over KT16 and the streets around it. Local streets include Almners Road, Pantiles Close and Lyne Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Close by, we cover events in Chertsey (1 mile east), Trumps Green (2 miles west), Ottershaw (2 miles south), Stonehill (2 miles south-west) and Row Town (2 miles south-east). Further out, we also cater in Guildford (10 miles south), Woking (5 miles south), Camberley (9 miles south-west), Epsom (12 miles east), Ewell (12 miles east) and Egham (3 miles north).
Nearby you will also find Spelthorne Museum (3.3 miles north) and St. Peter's Hospital (0.8 miles south-east). The countryside around Lyne includes St Ann's Hill and St Ann's Lake.
- Local schools include White Lodge Children's Centre (0.8 miles south-east) and Salesian School (0.9 miles south-east)
How our Mexican street food works in Lyne
Organisers can book us as a public stall or to feed crew, volunteers and hospitality areas. Popular choices include burrito bowls, burritos and vegan tacos, which works well for sports club events and open days and community events.
Near Lyne, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. You’ll know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Where the truck can go in Lyne
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Spacing from tents and other structures
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Food, drinks or both
- How long we are needed on site
- The menu you choose
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the event is
- A picture of where we’d park
- The date and rough timings
- How we drive in and where we can park
The quickest way to a quote is to tell us about it on our contact page. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Summer events in Lyne have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Lyne questions
Can you trade at a school fair in Lyne?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Is it possible to have you in Riverside Walk?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the event needs and we will send the paperwork your event asks for.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
How it compares
Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. A Mexican trader adds variety. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
