Mexican catering for Newick events
A closer look at the menu
Quesadillas
A quesadilla is an easy favourite, and they go down well with children.
Burritos and burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings rolled in a large tortilla, or the same served in a bowl.
How our Mexican catering works in Newick
Our truck or trailer travels to events across Newick and nearby: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields, as long as there’s safe access. It works well for milestone birthdays and wedding breakfasts and evening food, with loaded nachos, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
Somewhere like Newick, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Mexican catering around Newick
Newick is about 4 miles west of Uckfield, in East Sussex. Anywhere in BN8, we can bring the truck or trailer to you. We serve in 289 places in East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 12 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Zion Chapel, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. By rail: Uckfield station is about 3.6 miles away. Venues in and around the South Downs National Park, within about 7 miles of Newick, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book.
Here we cover the BN8 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. Streets in the area include High Street, Church Road and Station Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. If your venue is just outside Newick, we also cover Founthill (1 mile south-east), North Chailey (1 mile west), Chailey (1 mile south-west), South Street (2 miles south-west) and Down Street (3 miles north-east). Further out, we also cater in Seaford (14 miles south), Lewes (7 miles south), Hailsham (13 miles south-east), Crowborough (9 miles north-east), Uckfield (4 miles east) and Newhaven (12 miles south).
Other landmarks nearby include Uckfield Community Hospital (4 miles east) and Heaven Farm Museum (3.2 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Brickfield Meadow.
- Local pubs include The Royal Oak Inn (under half a mile east)
Events we cater in Newick

Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. In Newick, you could book us for occasions like:

How the day works

- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we will park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.

What we need at the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Newick: your questions answered
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Sheffield Park Garden?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Which station should guests use for Newick?
The closest is Uckfield station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Do you do a drinks bar?
Yes. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Can you keep it mild?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What Mexican catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Parking and the route in
- How many staff you need
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many guests we’re serving
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
What we need to know
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of where we’d park
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The venue or postcode
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
Send us the date, your venue or BN8 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send a quick message through our quote form.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
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.
