Planning a taco wedding in Birchden

For guests travelling by train, Eridge station is about 1.2 miles away. Close to Birchden are historic houses such as Groombridge Place (0.8 miles north) and Bassetts Manor (4.4 miles west). 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. A rural reception could be within reach, as the High Weald National Landscape is no more than about 7 miles from Birchden. Firm ground and a clear way in matter more than the view for a food truck.

We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Birchden: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Thomas the Apostle?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Is Birchden close to London?
It is about 30 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Birchden.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
