Planning help
Planning a food truck in Eastbourne
Eastbourne is in East Sussex. We bring Mexican catering to homes, gardens and venues in Eastbourne and nearby villages. We serve in 289 places in East Sussex, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 19 miles away.
Parks such as Princes Park usually need the owner’s permission for vehicles and catering, so ask before you plan an event there. Parents planning a fundraiser at a school like Stafford Junior School might find a Mexican street-food truck draws families in. Venues in and around the South Downs National Park, within about 6 miles of Eastbourne, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book. With the sea within about 2 miles, a beach-side event might appeal. Promenades and beaches usually need permission, and the truck or trailer has to park on firm ground, not sand.
Anywhere in BN23, BN22, BN21 and BN20, we can bring Mexican catering to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Whether your event is on Vine Square, Ashford Square and Howard Square or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access. You will find Eastbourne on the A22 and A259, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Hampden Park (1 mile north-west), Upperton (1 mile south-west), Old Town (1 mile south-west), Ratton Village (2 miles west) and Meads (2 miles south). Larger places within reach include Hastings (13 miles north-east), Bexhill-on-Sea (9 miles north-east), Seaford (8 miles west), Lewes (14 miles north-west), Hailsham (6 miles north) and St Leonards (13 miles east). As one of the bigger places in East Sussex, Eastbourne has plenty of venues and spaces for events.
Well-known places in the area include Pevensey Castle (3 miles north-east) and Royal Sussex Regimental Museum (1 mile south-east). Not far away are Combe Hill.
- Local schools include Ratton School (1.1 miles west) and WMG Academy for Young Engineers (1.5 miles south-west)
- Pubs nearby include The King's Arms Public House (0.9 miles south-east)
Where the truck can go in Eastbourne
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:

- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
