Mexican street food in Hanover
Running an event in Hanover
Hanover is about 1 mile south of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. We bring Mexican street food to homes, gardens and venues in Hanover and the surrounding area. We cater in 30 places in Brighton and Hove, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
If your event is in Queen's Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission; we will supply what they need from us. For visitors coming by rail, Brighton station is about 0.6 miles away. Organisers near the South Downs National Park, within about 7 miles of Hanover, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets. With the sea within about a mile, we plan for wind at coastal events, on firm ground rather than sand.
This part of Brighton and Hove takes in BN2, BN1 and BN50. From Elmore Road, London Road and Milton Road or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Brighton (1 mile north), Carlton Hill (1 mile south), West Hill (1 mile west), Seven Dials (1 mile west) and Kemptown (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also cater in Brighton and Hove (3 miles west), Aldrington (3 miles west), Hangleton (3 miles north-west), Patcham (3 miles north), Westdene (3 miles north-west) and Saltdean (4 miles south-east). As one of the bigger places in Brighton and Hove, Hanover has plenty of venues and spaces for events.
Well-known places in the area include Old Police Cells Museum (0.8 miles south-west) and Brighton General Hospital (0.6 miles east). The countryside around Hanover includes Whitehawk Hill and Newmarket Hill.
- Local schools include Academy of Creative Training (0.6 miles south) and Brighton Girls (1 mile west)
- Local pubs include The Dover Castle pub (under half a mile south)
Mexican street food in Hanover, served fresh
One Mexican trader covers several diets: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That helps organisers balance the line-up. At country shows and outdoor cinema and theatre nights, we can serve vegan tacos, tacos and quesadillas.
Events near Hanover are often volunteer-run, so it helps to agree the pitch, power and water early. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a space won’t work. The main points are:
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What affects the price in Hanover
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Timings and hours
- Parking and the route in
- The menu you choose
- The number of people
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Expected numbers
- Where the event is
- How we drive in and where we can park
- A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

Hanover questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Queen's Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you run a bar at festivals?
That depends on licensing. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, and we’ll go from there.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
How it works
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. For an evening event in Hanover, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.
