About our Mexican party catering in Down Street

A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, as long as the ground is firm and level and the access is wide enough. Not sure? Send us a photo. For garden get-togethers and family reunions, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, guacamole and salsas and quesadillas.

Near Down Street, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we will plan around it. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

What happens on the day

We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. At midsummer, it’s light in Down Street until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. We start by checking your date and the space.
  2. You pick the fillings and extras.
  3. Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
  4. Service starts at the agreed time.
  5. We pack away and the party carries on.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Ask the venue about power and water
  • Give us a contact for the day

Parties in Down Street: gardens, venues and local tips

Down Street is about 3 miles north-west of Uckfield, in East Sussex. Tell us where your party in Down Street will be, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up before the day. Down Street is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex where we can bring Mexican party catering. Our nearest city page is Royal Tunbridge Wells, about 13 miles away.

Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as The Parish Church of St Andrew and St Mary, with a party at home or in a hall afterwards. Parks such as West Park normally need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often easier. For a party in the countryside, the High Weald National Landscape is within about 7 miles. Rural gardens and fields work well for a truck, given firm ground and a way in.

Anywhere in TN22, we can bring Mexican party catering to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Close by, we cover parties in Maresfield (1 mile east), Budlett's Common (2 miles east), Newick (3 miles south-west), Founthill (3 miles south-west) and Ridgewood (3 miles south-east). Further out, we also cater in Seaford (15 miles south), Lewes (9 miles south), Hailsham (13 miles south-east), Crowborough (6 miles north-east), Uckfield (3 miles south-east) and Newhaven (14 miles south).

Other landmarks nearby include Uckfield Community Hospital (3 miles south-east) and Heaven Farm Museum (2.8 miles north-west). Open spaces near Down Street include Brickfield Meadow.

Planning for every diet

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Put out bins for general waste and recycling
  • Ask guests about diets when you invite them
  • Put severe allergies to us in writing
  • Include at least one vegan filling

Rain does not stop the hatch, though guests will want cover to eat under.

Bowls as an alternative to tacos.

How it compares

Compared with a barbecue, a food truck serves steadily from the start, and nobody is stuck at the grill. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Why us?

  • Allergen information for everything we serve
  • Every guest catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included
  • Catering across East Sussex, including Down Street
  • Quick, friendly service from the hatch

For event organisers in Down Street

Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it is a good fit.

Quesadillas

A good choice for children.

Salsas and guacamole

DIY taco night or a caterer?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
