About our wedding Mexican catering in Shellwood Cross
Mixed diets are easier with a Mexican wedding menu: we plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options and give allergen information for every dish. We serve a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, quesadillas and tacos, and it suits day-after celebrations and food for evening guests.
Near Shellwood Cross, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Step by step
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. December weddings in Shellwood Cross lose the light by about 3:55pm, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- We plan the food with you: wedding breakfast, evening food or both.
- We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve on cue, around speeches and photos.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

FAQs for Shellwood Cross
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.
What’s the nearest station to Shellwood Cross for guests?
The closest is Holmwood station, roughly 2.5 miles away.
Are plates and napkins included?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
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 do a wedding bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving your guests. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we will check that with you.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
