How our Mexican catering works in Rye Foreign
We bring our food truck or trailer to events in and around Rye Foreign: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields, wherever we can get in safely. At engagement and anniversary parties and christenings and family parties, we’ll put together a menu of quesadillas, tacos and burritos for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Rye Foreign, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Rye Foreign questions
Which station is closest to Rye Foreign?
Rye station, about 1.7 miles south-east of the centre.
We are having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
What if the weather’s bad?
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 cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Do you cover Rye Foreign?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Rye Foreign and the rest of East Sussex. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so it is hot when it reaches them.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
What’s on the menu
Tacos
Tacos are the classic street food of Mexico. They come with fresh salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Loaded nachos
Loaded nachos are perfect for sharing. Dairy-free versions can be planned.
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
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.
Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
