Your questions about Mexican catering in Saddlescombe
Could you serve in Waterhall?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Which station is closest to Saddlescombe?
Guests can use Hassocks station, about 3.2 miles north-east of Saddlescombe.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We park our truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What’s on the menu?
We agree the menu with each client, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria or spiced mushrooms. The sample menu shows the options.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How we price Mexican catering
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- What the venue already provides
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Travel, parking and access
- Guest numbers
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The address or venue name
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Your date and when you want service to start
- What power and water the site has
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Planning the serving area
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?

Why us?
- A menu built around your guests
- Everything served fresh from the hatch

Nearby historic houses include Portslade Manor (3.3 miles south) and Preston Manor & Gardens (3.7 miles south-east).
