What affects the price in Balcombe
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The menu you choose
- Distance and access to the venue
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Whether you need disposables
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- The address or venue name
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- Your date and when you want service to start
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
Can I do a taco night myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Balcombe questions
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
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.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
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. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
When should I book?
Early, especially for summer weekends. Check your date with us.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
How it works
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A party in Balcombe in late May has daylight until about 8:50pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.
- We start by checking your date and the space.
- You choose fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm power, water and the way in.
- Service starts at the agreed time.
- We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.
How to prepare
