Mexican catering for your event in Runcton
Every menu is agreed with you, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It suits retirement and leaving parties and garden parties, with burrito bowls, burritos and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a rural place like Runcton, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

The process
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. In Runcton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
Getting a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. Just use our quote form.
Planning help
Perfect for your event in Runcton
There’s no kitchen needed at the venue, so it works in gardens, fields and grounds without catering facilities.
These are some of the occasions we serve around Runcton:
- Weddings, day or evening
- Retirement and leaving parties
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- School fairs and fundraisers
When the service is at a church such as The Parish Church of St Stephen, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.

Common questions in Runcton
Is Runcton close to London?
Roughly 55 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Could you come to a seaside event near Runcton?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Our service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Bigger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, cook to order and serve tacos, burritos and more from the hatch. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.

By rail: the nearest station is Chichester station, about 1.9 miles north-west. Historic houses near Runcton include Goodwood House (3.9 miles north). Estates and historic houses tend to set their own rules for caterers, so find out what yours allows first. With the sea within about 4 miles, a beach-side event might appeal. Promenades and beaches normally need permission, and the truck or trailer has to park on firm ground, not sand.

Local streets include Goodwood Gardens, Brookside and Lagness Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. We also serve at events in North Mundham (1 mile west), Merston (1 mile north-east), Lagness (1 mile south-east), Hunston (1 mile west) and Portfield (2 miles north).

Organising for someone else?
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Why choose Mexican catering in Runcton?
