How our Mexican catering works in Hankham
Taco catering in Hankham is what we do best. With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our food truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and burrito bowls, and it suits fundraisers and school events and leaving parties.
For a rural spot like Hankham, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Your questions about Mexican catering in Hankham
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is Hankham close to London?
It’s about 50 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Can you cater for special diets?
We can. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Can you come to a private house?
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 will advise.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can you serve drinks as well?
We can. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
