Mexican catering near Penhurst
Mexican catering in Penhurst, served fresh
We bring our food truck or trailer to events in and around Penhurst: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields, as long as there’s safe access. At staff parties and office lunches and christenings and family parties, we can serve burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and tacos.
For a rural spot like Penhurst, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Planning a food truck in Penhurst
Penhurst is about 6 miles north-west of Bexhill-on-Sea, in East Sussex. We serve at events in gardens, halls and venues around Penhurst. Penhurst is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we can bring Mexican catering. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 24 miles away.
Thinking of an event in Ashburnham Park? Public parks generally need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first. Nearby historic houses include Bateman's (4.7 miles north). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before you book one. With the High Weald National Landscape about 6 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Penhurst. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.
Anywhere in TN33, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Close by, we cover events in Steven's Crouch (2 miles south-east), Netherfield (2 miles north-east), Twelve Oaks (2 miles north), Hollingrove (3 miles north) and Brightling (3 miles north). Larger places within reach include Eastbourne (11 miles south-west), Hastings (8 miles south-east), Bexhill-on-Sea (6 miles south-east), Hailsham (8 miles south-west), Crowborough (14 miles north-west) and St Leonards (8 miles south-east).
Nearby you will also find Battle Museum of Local History (3.2 miles east) and Bexhill Hospital (5.8 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Senlac Hill.
What happens on the day
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. A December event in Penhurst 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 9:15pm.

Penhurst questions
Do you come out to small places like Penhurst?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
How far is Penhurst from central London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Can you serve drinks as well?
Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we’ll check that with you.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Where the truck can go in Penhurst
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Popular choices
- Burritos
- Tacos
- Burrito bowls
- Quesadillas
- Build-your-own taco bar
- Loaded nachos
Can I do a taco night myself?
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.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
