Your questions about Mexican street food in Chailey
Will you travel to a small place like Chailey?
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.
How far is Chailey from London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not usually stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you come to Chailey?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Chailey and the rest of East Sussex. To check your date, use our quote form.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a quote.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Check how traders handle peak times
- Give traders a single information pack
- Check allergen information is on display
- Confirm power and water with traders
We keep our pitch tidy and safe throughout the day.
Burrito bowls for gluten-free visitors.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Comparing your options
Not every trader covers vegans and coeliacs. Our menu includes vegan and gluten-free options. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

The process
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule.

- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
