DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Mexican catering for your event in Budlett's Common
Planning taco catering for an event in Budlett's Common? We bring our truck or trailer to events in and around Budlett's Common: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields, wherever we can get in safely. It works well for staff parties and office lunches and family gatherings and christenings, serving fresh salsas and guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and quesadillas.
In a hamlet or village like Budlett's Common, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

What Mexican catering costs
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- What the venue already provides
- Food, drinks or both
- How many guests we’re serving
- Staff for serving and the bar
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

- The venue or postcode
- Expected numbers
Send us the date, your venue or TN22 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just tell us about it on our contact page.

FAQs for Budlett's Common
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald 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.
Could you serve in West Park?
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 will send what they need from us.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Can you cater for special diets?
Yes. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
How much will it cost?
We quote for each event, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. For a price, fill in our quote form.

Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so it’s hot when it reaches them.
