Blackness questions
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you cater in villages like Blackness?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
What’s on the menu
Nachos to share
Tortilla chips with salsa, guacamole and toppings at receptions.
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are simple and popular.

Planning the serving area

Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Confirm vehicle access with facilities
- Spread lunch times across departments
- Ensure there are alcohol-free drinks
- Tell us how long the food break is
A taco-bar station can be set up indoors or nearby if the venue prefers, with the truck or trailer parked where agreed.
Aguas frescas and soft drinks for team days.
