About our Mexican party catering in Friston

Mexican street food is made for relaxed parties: easy to eat with one hand, so guests can keep chatting and there’s no need for a seating plan. We serve tacos, loaded nachos and guacamole and salsas, and it is a good fit for engagement and anniversary parties and baby celebrations.

Parties around Friston are often relaxed, garden-and-gazebo affairs. A taco truck on the drive fits right in. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Mexican party catering or something else?

Compared with a barbecue, a food truck serves steadily from the start, and nobody is stuck at the grill. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What we offer in Friston

  • A menu agreed with you
  • Allergen information for every dish
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests

The process

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Sunset in Friston ranges from about 9:15pm at midsummer to about 3:55pm in December, so autumn and winter parties need more thought about lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
  2. You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
  3. We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
  4. We set up and serve tacos and more while your guests enjoy the party.
  5. When everyone is fed, we clear our area.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
  • Name one person we can ask on the day

Friston: your questions answered

Which station should guests use for Friston?

The closest is Eastbourne station, roughly 3.2 miles away.

Could you come to a seaside event near Friston?

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

Which areas do you serve?

London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Friston.

Do you need electricity?

That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.

How long are you on site?

It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.

Do we need to provide plates?

Let us know what you’d like and we’ll explain the options with your quote.

What food and drinks do you offer?

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.

Is my garden suitable?

Normally, if there is firm, level ground and a way in that is wide and tall enough. Send us a photo of the space.

Where the truck can go in Friston

Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:

  • Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
  • Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
  • Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
