Hosting a taco party in South Heighton
South Heighton is about 1 mile north of Newhaven, in East Sussex. Anywhere in BN9, we can serve your guests, as long as there’s access. South Heighton is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from South Heighton to Brighton (about 8 miles away).
A birthday picnic in Castle Hill sounds fun, but bringing in a catering vehicle needs the owner’s agreement. Historic houses near South Heighton include Monk's House (2.9 miles north-west) and Firle Place (3 miles north-east). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler.

How it works
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. In South Heighton, it’s light until about 9:15pm in June but dark by about 3:55pm in December, so the time of year shapes an evening party.

- You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
- We confirm access, parking, power and water.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- We pack down after service so the party can carry on.
Before we arrive

Popular choices
Salsas and guacamole
Fresh salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your party.
Tacos
Street tacos are quick and easy to eat. Fillings are agreed with you.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
South Heighton questions
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Leonard: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not 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 far is South Heighton from central London?
It is about 48 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you cover South Heighton?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in South Heighton and across East Sussex. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do we need to provide plates?
Tell us what you need, and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
What does Mexican party catering cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
How much is a taco truck for a party?
We don’t publish set prices, as each party is different. Tell us your numbers and plans for a quote.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
How we price Mexican party catering
Contact us for a quote, and the price is based on:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Guest numbers
- How many staff you need
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food

- The address or venue name
- A picture of where we’d park
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. To ask for one, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Why choose Mexican party catering in South Heighton?
Guests choose their own fillings and toppings, so there is less waste.
Whatever the occasion, our truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We can cater:
- Street and neighbourhood parties
- Housewarming parties
- Birthday parties
- Graduation and exam-results parties
Once the service at a church like Church of St Leonard is over, the party can move somewhere with space for the truck and a queue.
Questions to ask before booking
- The caterer’s food hygiene rating
- What happens if it rains
- When final numbers are due
- Whether travel is included
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask guests about diets when you invite them
- Give the neighbours a heads-up
- Ensure there’s a vegan option
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
Rain doesn’t stop the hatch, though guests will want cover to eat under.
Nachos for sharing as a starter.

- Space for guests to queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
