Danehill events: pitches and permissions
Danehill is about 5 miles north-east of Haywards Heath, in West Sussex. Whether your event is in the middle of Danehill or on the outskirts, Mexican street food works the same way: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. We serve in 371 places across West Sussex. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Danehill to Crawley (about 10 miles away).
For visitors coming by rail, the nearest station is Haywards Heath station, about 5 miles west. Organisers of a summer fête for a church such as The Parish Church of All Saints could add tacos and burritos alongside the bric-a-brac. Within about 5 miles is the High Weald National Landscape, where events may have extra rules on vehicles and waste; we’ll follow the site’s requirements.
This part of West Sussex takes in RH17. Local streets include London Road, Lewes Road and Oaktree Cottages; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. For events just outside Danehill, we cover Chelwood Common (1 mile north-east), Furner's Green (1 mile south), Horsted Keynes (1 mile west), Birchgrove (1 mile north) and Chelwood Gate (2 miles north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Crawley (10 miles north-west), Horsham (14 miles west), Haywards Heath (5 miles south-west), Burgess Hill (8 miles south-west), East Grinstead (7 miles north) and Broadfield (10 miles north-west).
Well-known places in the area include Waterbury Castle (1.7 miles west) and Princess Royal Hospital (4.8 miles south-west). The countryside around Danehill includes Brickfield Meadow.
About the menu
Tacos
Street tacos suit a festival crowd.
Quesadillas
A good choice for families.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
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.
Perfect for your event in Danehill
One trader, several diets.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Common bookings include:
- Open-air performances
- School fairs and fundraisers
- Music and food festivals
- Sports clubs and race days
A school such as Danehill Church of England Primary School running a summer fair could book a taco truck.
What to look for in a quote
- When payment is due
- If the price includes VAT
- The deadline for final numbers
- Allergen information for each dish
Danehill questions
Do you cater in villages like Danehill?
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.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you cater in Danehill?
Yes, we do. Danehill is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Tell us about your event, and we’ll confirm availability and requirements.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- A level pitch on firm ground
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Planning for every diet
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Provide seating near the food
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
If crew or volunteer meals are booked, they’re served at the agreed times.
Nachos for groups.
How it works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Summer events in Danehill have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
Ask for a quote
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, tell us about it on our contact page.
