Tortington questions
Do you come to school fairs around Tortington?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Could you come to a seaside event near Tortington?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots generally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Can you feed our volunteers?
We can. Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering is available, with or without a public stall.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, including West Sussex. See all areas.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you come to Tortington?
We do. Tortington is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Do you do parties at home?
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’ll talk it through.

What Mexican street food costs
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Distance and access to the venue
- How long we’re needed on site
- The number of people
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- What you’d like on the menu
- The date and time of the event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Ensure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options
We serve from the hatch throughout trading hours, made to order.
Nachos for groups.
How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Summer events in Tortington have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
