How our Mexican catering works in Roser's Cross
We plan each menu with the client, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. For staff parties and office lunches and garden get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and tacos and more.
In a rural place like Roser's Cross, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Before you pencil in Passingworth Park, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement.

Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so everything goes out hot.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you.
Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in Roser's Cross until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- We serve hot food from our truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- When you are done, we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How many staff you need
- Food, drinks or both
- What’s on the menu
- Distance and access to the venue
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- What you’d like on the menu
- Expected numbers
- Your date and when you want service to start
- How we drive in and where we can park
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
Popular choices

Common questions in Roser's Cross
Do you cater in villages like Roser's Cross?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas 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 plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What are your prices?
There’s no fixed price list, as each event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
Can you set up at our venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we will check it works. Space for a queue and, if you choose one, a taco-bar table helps too.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
