About our wedding Mexican catering in Ditchling
We can cater the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. One option is a taco bar for the main meal and tacos or nachos later on. It suits evening wedding food and rustic barn weddings, with a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, evening tacos and loaded nachos.
There’s something special about a country wedding near Ditchling, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Weddings in Ditchling: venues, ceremonies and travel
Ditchling is about 3 miles south of Burgess Hill, in West Sussex. From the centre of Ditchling to the outskirts, wedding Mexican catering works the same way: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. We serve in 371 places in West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 6 miles away.
If you’re marrying at a church near Ditchling, such as Ditchling Unitarian Chapel, a reception in a garden, field or venue nearby keeps the day flowing. We can set up while the photos are taken. For guests travelling by train, the nearest station is Hassocks station, about 1.4 miles west. A rural reception could be within reach, as the South Downs National Park is no more than about a mile from Ditchling. Firm ground and a clear way in matter more than the view for a food truck.
This part of West Sussex takes in BN6, and we can cater your wedding anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Streets in the area include High Street, The Twitten and Charlton Gardens, and a wedding on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Include suppliers who need feeding
- Let us know about severe allergies in writing
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
After service, we clear our area; you carry on celebrating.
Include your suppliers in the numbers if you add them to the final count.

Questions from Ditchling
Which station is closest to Ditchling?
Guests can use Hassocks station, about 1.4 miles west of Ditchling.
Do you cater in villages like Ditchling?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Will you talk to our venue?
Yes, and it saves you passing messages. Introduce us and we’ll sort the details.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t usually stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you do evening food as well as the main meal?
Yes: one part of the day, or both main meals. Share your plans and we’ll suggest a menu.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. By late September, sunset in Ditchling is around 7:05pm, so an evening taco service may start as the light fades. In late May it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- We start by checking your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Guests build their tacos at the taco bar or order at the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Give us a contact for the day
