How our Mexican party catering works in Herstmonceux
Many gardens and drives can take a truck or trailer, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that’s wide enough. Send us a photo if you are unsure. For leaving dos and retirements and birthday parties, we’ll put together a menu of tacos, burritos and loaded nachos for your guests.
Near Herstmonceux, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we’ll plan around it. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Questions from Herstmonceux
How far is Herstmonceux from central London?
It’s about 46 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you cater in villages like Herstmonceux?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
How much is a taco truck for a party?
We quote for each party, depending on numbers, menu and where you are. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Of course. Quesadillas and simple tacos go down well with children, and salsas go on the side. Include children in your numbers.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Can you supply plates?
