Scaynes Hill questions
Is Scaynes Hill close to London?
About 35 miles from central London.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Eastern Road Nature Reserve?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
There’s no fixed price list, as each event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.
What food do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria or spiced mushrooms. Take a look at the sample menu.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
Yes. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
About our Mexican catering in Scaynes Hill
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. For markets and community events and weddings and evening receptions, we can serve tacos, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar for your guests.
For a rural spot like Scaynes Hill, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Other catering in Scaynes Hill
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To make it work smoothly:
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so everything goes out hot.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.
What you get with us
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- We cover Scaynes Hill and the whole of West Sussex
- A menu built around your guests

What affects the price in Scaynes Hill
These are the factors that matter most:
- Serving staff
- How long we’re needed on site
- Travel, parking and access
- How many guests we’re serving
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your date and when you want service to start
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Where the truck can go in Scaynes Hill
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
On the menu in Scaynes Hill
- Tacos
- Burritos
- Loaded nachos
- Burrito bowls
- Build-your-own taco bar
- Quesadillas
Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A closer look at the menu
Build-your-own taco bar
A taco bar is relaxed and sociable, and it makes mixed diets easy.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, finished with salsas and toppings. Fillings are agreed with you, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Scaynes Hill? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
How it works
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Around midsummer it stays light in Scaynes Hill until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
