How our food truck hire works in Roedean
Our truck or trailer is available to hire for events across Roedean and nearby. We serve quesadillas, burrito bowls and burritos, and it suits wedding receptions and summer parties at home.
In a hamlet or village like Roedean, our food truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Cooking yourself saves on catering but costs you the day. With a hired truck, we do the cooking so you can join in. 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 you get with us
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A menu built around your guests
- Events in Roedean and across Brighton and Hove

Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before booking

When service ends, we pack away, leaving our spot tidy.
Our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added to the booking, with licensing checked with you.

Roedean questions
Do you come out to small places like Roedean?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Mark's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you run a bar?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can we add drinks?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we will check with you.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. Late-September events in Roedean see sunset at about 7:05pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:50pm.
- Tell us the date, the location, rough numbers and any diets.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- When service ends, we pack up and leave the spot clear.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
How to get a price
