Do you come to school fairs around Upper Wellingham?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.

It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.

Street food for events around Upper Wellingham
Upper Wellingham is about 2 miles north-east of Lewes, in East Sussex. Anywhere in BN8, we will come to your venue or site, as long as there is access. Upper Wellingham is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex where we can bring Mexican street food. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Upper Wellingham to Brighton (9 miles away).
Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Ringmer Community College and Sixth Form, a busy corner. For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as The Parish Church of St Mary, a taco truck adds hot food to the cakes and tombola. Organisers near the South Downs National Park, within about 3 miles of Upper Wellingham, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets.
We serve at events all over the BN8 postcode area. Close by, we cover events in Barcombe Mills (1 mile north), Norlington (1 mile south-east), Barcombe (1 mile north-west), Barcombe Cross (2 miles north-west) and Broyle Side (2 miles east).

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
For event organisers in Upper Wellingham
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Upper Wellingham? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
