Fairs, fêtes and events in Mousehill
Mousehill is about 6 miles south-west of Guildford, in Surrey. Anywhere in GU8, we’ll come to your venue or site, as long as there is access. Mousehill is one of 395 places in Surrey where we can bring Mexican street food. Our nearest city page is Guildford, about 6 miles away.
A fundraiser for a church like St John the Evangelist's Church might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. If you’re organising a summer fair or fundraiser for a school such as Milford School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Shows and fairs in the Surrey Hills National Landscape, about 6 miles from Mousehill at most, sometimes have rules on where traders can drive. Send us the site plan and we’ll plan around it.

How our Mexican street food works in Mousehill
We agree a stall menu with you, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. Popular choices include loaded nachos, vegan tacos and burritos, and it’s a good fit for street food and farmers’ markets and open days and community events.
For a village fête or field event near Mousehill, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

What we need at the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- A level pitch on firm ground
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
How we price Mexican street food
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- The menu you choose
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- How many staff you need
- The number of people
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What we need to know
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Your menu ideas
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many adults and children
- How we drive in and where we can park
Still deciding on the menu? That’s fine: give us the basics about your event, and we will suggest a menu. When you’re ready, use our quote form.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Confirm power and water with traders
- Plan seating near the food area
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
We keep in touch with your traders’ contact on the day.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.
How it works
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. At midsummer, events in Mousehill stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Let us know the timings for the day

Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Common questions in Mousehill
Could you serve in Rodborough Common?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
How far is Mousehill from London?
It is about 33 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Do you need power and water?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
How it compares
Burger stalls are common. A Mexican trader adds variety to a food line-up. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
