About our Mexican catering in Norlington
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. Burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas can sit alongside them. It works well for garden parties and engagement and anniversary parties, with burritos, loaded nachos and tacos.
For a rural spot like Norlington, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Planning a food truck in Norlington
Norlington is about 3 miles north-east of Lewes, in East Sussex. From the centre of Norlington to the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Norlington is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we can bring Mexican catering. We cater right across the region, from Norlington to Brighton (9 miles away).
By rail: the nearest station is Lewes station, about 2.8 miles south-west. Guests leaving a church like The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin after a christening could walk over to a nearby garden where the tacos are ready. Norlington is within about 3 miles 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.
Anywhere in BN8, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From Norlington Lane and Norlington Court or anywhere nearby, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access. If your venue is just outside Norlington, we also cover Broyle Side (1 mile east), Upper Wellingham (1 mile north-west), Barcombe Mills (2 miles north-west), Barcombe (2 miles north-west) and Rose Hill (2 miles north). Larger places within reach include Eastbourne (13 miles south-east), Seaford (9 miles south), Lewes (3 miles south-west), Hailsham (9 miles east), Crowborough (12 miles north-east) and Uckfield (5 miles north).
Other landmarks nearby include South Malling Without (2 miles south) and Lewes Castle (2.9 miles south-west). The countryside around Norlington includes Cliffe Hill and Malling Down.
- Local schools include Ringmer Primary and Nursery School (0.7 miles south-east)
- Nearby, you will find The Anchor pub (0.5 miles south)
Where the truck can go in Norlington
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Why choose Mexican catering in Norlington?
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Why us?
- Catering across East Sussex, including Norlington
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Service planned around your numbers
- A plan agreed before the day

How the day works
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Winter evenings in Norlington close in by about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:15pm.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
