Planning the serving area
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Should I do it myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

The process
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. Summer events in Sholden Meadows have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

Sholden Meadows: your questions answered
Can you serve near the sea around Sholden Meadows?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
How far is Sholden Meadows from central London?
It is about 66 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
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 have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Can you send us your trader documents?
Send your requirements and we’ll respond with our documents.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
