Mexican street food in Watermill, served fresh
We agree a stall menu with you, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. We serve vegan tacos, loaded nachos and tacos, which works well for festivals and crew and volunteer catering.
A fête near Watermill might be on a field with no mains power; let us know and we will confirm the arrangements. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Questions to ask before you book
- How long the service runs
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- Where to see their hygiene rating
- Space, access, power and water needs
Should I do it myself?
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Running an event in Watermill
Watermill is about 2 miles north of Bexhill-on-Sea, in East Sussex. We cater events at homes, gardens and venues in Watermill and nearby villages. We serve in 289 places across East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 26 miles away.
If your event is in Highwoods, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission; we will supply what they need from us. Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Bexhill High Academy, a busy corner. Seafront festivals and markets, with the coast within about 6 miles of Watermill, need the organiser’s permission for traders. Send us the pitch details and we’ll check access.
Anywhere in TN39, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Lunsford's Cross (1 mile west), Sidley (1 mile south), Catsfield (2 miles north), Bexhill-on-Sea (2 miles south) and Ninfield (2 miles north-west).

Watermill: your questions answered
Do you cater at coastal events near Watermill?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots usually need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.

Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.

- Your trader pack and site rules
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Spacing from tents and other structures

How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. By late September, it is dark in Watermill at around 7:00pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
