Mexican party catering for Copthorne events
How our Mexican party catering works in Copthorne
Homes, gardens, clubs and hired venues all work. Tell us where the party is and we’ll check the access. For family reunions and engagement and anniversary parties, we will put together a menu of a build-your-own taco bar, burritos and guacamole and salsas for your guests.
Around Copthorne, a garden and a gazebo is often all you need. A taco truck on the drive fits right in, with power and water agreed beforehand. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Party venues around Copthorne
Copthorne is about 3 miles north-east of Crawley, in West Sussex. We cater parties at gardens, halls and venues around Copthorne. We cover all 371 towns and villages in West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 21 miles away.
Nearby historic houses include Gravetye Manor (4.5 miles south-east) and Saint Hill Manor (4.9 miles south-east). A milestone birthday in a historic setting is possible, but find out early whether a food truck can get on site. Once the service at a church like St John's Church is over, the party can move somewhere with space for the truck and a queue. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Copthorne, so a garden party here may come with a lovely view. Country lanes can be narrow, so tell us about the route in.
We cater parties across the RH10 and RH6 postcode area and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Church Road, Brookside and Bridgelands, and a party on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Copthorne is on the A264, so it’s easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. Neighbouring places where we cater parties include Shipley Bridge (1 mile north-west), Forge Wood (1 mile west), Tinsley Green (1 mile west), Burstow (1 mile north) and Keeper's Corner (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Crawley (3 miles south-west), Horsham (10 miles south-west), Haywards Heath (10 miles south), Burgess Hill (12 miles south), East Grinstead (5 miles east) and Broadfield (4 miles south-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Effingham Park Motor Museum (1.6 miles east) and County Mall (3 miles south-west). Not far away are Hedgecourt Lake.

- Nearby, you’ll find The Cherry Tree pub (0.8 miles north-east)
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
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.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. Sunset in Copthorne ranges from about 9:20pm at midsummer to about 3:55pm in December, so autumn and winter parties need more thought about lighting.

Copthorne: your questions answered
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
We’re having a ceremony at St John's Church: 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 long are you on site?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Most children enjoy it, particularly quesadillas. Tell us how many children and their ages.
When should I book?
The sooner the better, but it’s always worth asking. We’ll check availability for you.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, West Sussex included. Find your area.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll recommend how to serve.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
