How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Winter evenings in Rotherfield close in by about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:15pm.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Share the running order, including any speeches
Getting a price
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

Rotherfield: venues, access and local tips
Rotherfield is about 2 miles east of Crowborough, in East Sussex. Give us the address of your event in Rotherfield, and we’ll plan access and set-up. Rotherfield is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we can bring Mexican catering. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 21 miles away.
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Rotherfield Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. When the service is at a church such as The Parish Church of St Denys, the food normally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. Venues in and around the High Weald National Landscape, within about 3 miles of Rotherfield, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before booking.
Anywhere in TN6, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Church Road, Station Road and Church Walk, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
