Mexican catering for Lancing events
Mexican catering in Lancing, from our truck or trailer
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. You don’t need a kitchen at the venue. At charity and school events and retirement and leaving parties, we can serve loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls.
For a place the size of Lancing, 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. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Cold buffets are easy, but the food sits out. Our food is served hot, one order at a time. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
What you get with us
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Every guest catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included
- Allergen-aware menus
- Served fresh from our food truck or trailer

Mexican catering around Lancing
Lancing is about 3 miles east of Worthing, in West Sussex. Across the BN15 area, we will come to your venue or site, as long as there’s access. Lancing is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 8 miles away.
Guests leaving a church like St. Michael & All Angels after a christening could walk over to a nearby garden where the tacos are ready. Parks such as Brooklands Park usually need the owner’s permission for vehicles and catering, so ask before you plan an event there.

The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots typically need permission from the council or landowner.

Local streets include North Road, North Farm Road and Addison Close; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you.

- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
