Mexican catering in Highbrook
Working with your venue
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
How our Mexican catering works in Highbrook
The menu starts with tacos: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos, and it’s a good fit for garden parties and staff parties and office lunches.
Somewhere like Highbrook, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Questions from Highbrook
Do you come to events 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.
How far is Highbrook from London?
About 31 miles from central London.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
What does Mexican catering cost?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
What do you need at the venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we will check it works. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Taco catering in Highbrook: local tips
Highbrook is about 4 miles north-east of Haywards Heath, in West Sussex. Give us the address of your event in Highbrook, and we will plan access and set-up. We serve in 371 places across West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Highbrook to Brighton (16 miles away).
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like St Peter's CofE Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Nearby historic houses include Priest House (1.5 miles north) and Gravetye Manor (2.4 miles north). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before you book one. With the High Weald National Landscape about 5 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Highbrook. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.
Wherever your event is in RH17, we can bring Mexican catering to you. We also serve at events in Ardingly (1 mile south-west), Little London (1 mile west), Sharpthorne (2 miles north), West Hoathly (2 miles north) and Horsted Keynes (2 miles south-east). Larger places within reach include Crawley (7 miles north-west), Horsham (11 miles west), Haywards Heath (4 miles south-west), Burgess Hill (7 miles south-west), East Grinstead (5 miles north) and Broadfield (7 miles north-west).
Well-known places in the area include Princess Royal Hospital (4.6 miles south) and Parish Museum (2.8 miles south). Open spaces near Highbrook include Blunts Wood and Paiges Meadow.
- Local pubs include The Ardingly Inn (1 mile south-west)
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
What happens on the day
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. Around midsummer it stays light in Highbrook until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Include at least one vegan filling
