Mexican catering for your event in Peacehaven
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Peacehaven and nearby: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, wherever we can get in safely. It works well for retirement and leaving parties and staff parties and office lunches, serving loaded nachos, burrito bowls and fresh salsas and guacamole.
There may be a hall or club near Peacehaven if your garden is small; any can work, given permission and level ground to park on. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

Questions from Peacehaven
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Ascension Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
What do you need at the venue?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we will check it works. We also need room for a queue.
Do you cater for big events?
That depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will plan around them.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Why choose Mexican catering in Peacehaven?
Mixed diets are easy to plan for, since everyone picks their own fillings and toppings. Vegetarian and vegan guests get a proper meal, not an afterthought.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Common bookings include:
- Engagement celebrations
- Christenings and family parties
- Retirement and leaving parties
- Fairs and festivals
For a fête or sports day at a school such as Peacehaven Community School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Planning the serving area
We will be honest if a space won’t work. What matters most:
- Space for guests to queue
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
