Taco catering in BN3: local guide

BN3 covers everything from Brighton, Hove and West Hill to 0 small villages and hamlets, and a food truck or trailer can work in all of them, given access. In towns, plan parking and loading; in villages, tell us about lanes, gates and ground. 14 of the places we cover in BN3 are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we plan for the wind at seaside events, and seafront spots need permission and firm ground for the truck or trailer.

Brighton and Hove: When the service is at a church such as Holy Cross Church, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like West Hove Infant School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. From late May to late September, sunset in Brighton and Hove moves from about 8:50pm to 7:05pm. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.

The menu, item by item

Tacos

Street tacos are small, quick and full of flavour. We serve them with salsas and toppings.

Burritos and burrito bowls

A big flour tortilla wrapped round rice, beans, a filling and toppings, or served as a bowl instead.

Space, access and the venue

Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
Permission from the venue or landowner
Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first

Can I do a taco night myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

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’ll do the serving.

Catering for every guest

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
Have a covered area ready in case of rain
Send allergy details to us in writing

For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.

Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
