About our Mexican catering in Holywell
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls.

It suits engagement and anniversary parties and milestone birthdays, serving burritos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.

Why choose Mexican catering in Holywell?
Cold buffets are easy, but the food sits out. Tacos and burritos are made to order and served hot. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Why us?
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
- Catering across East Sussex, including Holywell
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Service planned around your numbers
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

What else we do in Holywell
Holywell: your questions answered
Do you cater at coastal events near Holywell?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St John the Evangelist?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Give us separate numbers for children
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests build their own.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
What affects the price in Holywell
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- The menu you choose
- Timings and hours
- Distance and access to the venue
- Whether you need disposables
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
