How our Mexican catering works in Keymer
We slow-cook the fillings ahead and finish them on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. For festivals, fairs and markets and staff parties and office lunches, we can serve tacos, burrito bowls and burritos.
Around Keymer, events are often in gardens, fields, local halls or nearby venues. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

A closer look at the menu
Quesadillas
A quesadilla is an easy favourite.
Burritos and burrito bowls
Burritos are filling and easy to eat on the move. Bowls suit guests who want to skip the tortilla.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Count children separately
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer

Mexican catering around Keymer
Keymer is about 2 miles south of Burgess Hill, in West Sussex. Across the BN6 area, we will come to your venue or site. We serve in all 371 towns and villages across West Sussex, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Keymer to Brighton (about 6 miles away).
For a fête or sports day at a school such as The Windmills Junior School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking. If you are celebrating after a service at a church like St Cosmas and St Damian Church, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal. Keymer is within about a mile of the South Downs National Park, with country venues and gardens that can suit a food truck. Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about vehicles and catering, so check with yours.
Here we cover the BN6 postcode area. From Flowers Close, The Quadrant and Kymer Gardens or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access.

How it works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. A December event in Keymer will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
