Mexican catering near Hollingbury
Mexican catering for your event in Hollingbury
Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food. At leaving dos and retirement parties and staff parties and office lunches, we can serve quesadillas, burritos and a build-your-own taco bar for your guests.
For a place the size of Hollingbury, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue hire, and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Mexican catering or something else?
With a barbecue, someone typically ends up stuck at the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our truck or trailer. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

What’s on the menu
Quesadillas
Quesadillas are simple and comforting, and they go down well with children.
Tacos
Soft tortillas, warmed and filled, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings are agreed with you, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms.
Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Taco catering in Hollingbury: local tips
Hollingbury is about 2 miles north of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. For Mexican catering in Hollingbury, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. Hollingbury is one of 30 places in Brighton and Hove we cover.
When the service is at a church such as Fountain Centre, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. Before you pencil in Wild Park, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement. With the South Downs National Park about 5 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Hollingbury. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in. Coastal events near Hollingbury, which is within about 3 miles of the sea, bring wind and sand into the planning. Tell us exactly where you’d like us and we’ll check access.
This part of Brighton and Hove takes in BN1. We can cater an event on streets such as Keymer Road, Warmdene Road and Carden Avenue or the roads around them.

Questions from Hollingbury
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
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 Hollingbury from London?
About 44 miles from central London.
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. See our menu for ideas.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
We quote for each event, depending on numbers, menu, venue and timings. For a price, fill in our quote form.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Step by step
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Around midsummer it stays light in Hollingbury until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We confirm the way in and where we will park.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
How to prepare
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
