Questions to ask before you book

Mexican catering for your event in Petworth

Need taco catering in Petworth? With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. It suits weddings, day or evening and leaving parties, serving quesadillas, burrito bowls and fresh salsas and guacamole.

In a small place like Petworth, events are normally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

For event organisers in Petworth

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

How it works

Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Daylight in Petworth runs to about 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Let us know if service will run after dark, and we’ll talk about lighting.

  1. Start by telling us about your event.
  2. You get a sample menu and a quote.
  3. Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
  4. We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
  5. We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.

How to prepare

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Name one person we can ask on the day

Getting a price

We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, send a quick message through our quote form.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:

  • Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
  • Have a covered area ready in case of rain
  • Put any allergies in writing for us
  • Let us know if a guest is coeliac

Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so it is hot when it reaches them.

Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

What affects the price in Petworth

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • Serving staff
  • The length of service
  • The menu you choose

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.

Catering an event in Petworth

Petworth is about 12 miles north-east of Chichester, in West Sussex. Wherever your event is in the GU28 area, we’ll come to your venue or site, as long as there’s access. Petworth is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. Our nearest city page is Chichester, about 12 miles away.

By rail: Pulborough station is about 4.4 miles away. If you are celebrating after a service at a church like Sacred Heart Church, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal. With the South Downs National Park about 6 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Petworth. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.

Anywhere in GU28, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Your event could be at a home on Station Road, Back Lane and Rosemary Lane. You will find Petworth on the A272 and A283, so it’s easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. If your venue is just outside Petworth, we also cover Hampers Green (1 mile north), Haslingbourne (1 mile south-east), Tillington (1 mile west), Rotherbridge (1 mile south-west) and Upperton (1 mile north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Horsham (14 miles north-east), Worthing (14 miles south-east), Bognor Regis (14 miles south), Chichester (12 miles south-west), Littlehampton (12 miles south) and Rustington (13 miles south).

Other landmarks nearby include Coates Castle (2.6 miles south) and Coultershaw Heritage Site (1.2 miles south). Green spaces nearby include The Mens.
