East Dean questions
How far is East Dean from London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including West Sussex. See all areas.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
The process
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your wedding. In East Dean, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means evening food is typically served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- Together we plan the food for your day.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- We serve at the agreed points in the day.
- We clear our area once service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Connect us with your coordinator

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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.
Is wedding Mexican catering right for your wedding?
Some caterers only do the evening. We can do the main meal as well, so one caterer covers the day. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
