FAQs for Durrants
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Durrants?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will go through the licensing with you.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. Vegan fillings such as spiced mushrooms or black beans are on the menu.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information, and we will check availability.

What affects the price in Durrants
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- How many guests we are serving
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How many staff you need
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Your menu ideas
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Expected numbers
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
Where the truck can go in Durrants
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Your trader pack and site rules
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not normally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. A December market in Durrants loses the light at about 4:00pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
