It helps to add rail details to the invitations, as Balcombe station is about 1.3 miles away.

Firm ground and a clear way in matter more than the view for a food truck.

Balcombe Lane: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Balcombe Lane?
Balcombe station, about 1.3 miles south of the centre.
Do you cater in villages like Balcombe Lane?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can you cater for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Diets are planned in advance and kept separate. Ask any guests with severe allergies to speak to us first.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Why choose wedding Mexican catering in Balcombe Lane?
Couples choose Mexican street food because it feels relaxed and generous, and it gives guests something to remember.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:
- Marquee and garden weddings
- Weddings with lots of dietary needs
- Farm and barn venues
- Informal wedding breakfasts
Close to Balcombe Lane are historic houses such as Tyes Place (3 miles south-west) and Priest House (3.2 miles east). A listed house can make a beautiful backdrop, but many have firm rules on vehicles, so raise the food truck with them at your first visit.
What your quote should include
- The deadline for final numbers
- The wet-weather plan

What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can.

Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- We start by checking your date.
- You pick the menu with us.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
