Wedding Mexican catering in South Heighton, from our food truck or trailer
Service is planned around your running order: whether that is straight after the photos or later in the evening. We go over timings with your venue beforehand. At gatherings the day after a wedding and weddings with mixed diets, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, tacos and quesadillas for your guests.
Rural weddings around South Heighton have a charm of their own, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan access, ground and cover in case of rain. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Questions from South Heighton
What’s the nearest station to South Heighton for guests?
The closest is Newhaven Town station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What about supplier meals?
Yes. Add your suppliers to the final numbers.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Can we add margaritas?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving your guests. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we will check that with you.

Getting married in South Heighton?
South Heighton is about 1 mile north of Newhaven, in East Sussex. Whether your wedding is in the middle of South Heighton or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. South Heighton is one of 289 places in East Sussex we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from South Heighton to Brighton (8 miles away).
Group shots in Castle Hill could be lovely, though some parks ask for notice or a permit, so look into it. With a ceremony at a church such as Church of St Leonard, the simplest plan is a reception close by, so guests are not travelling far before they eat. A rural reception could be within reach, as the South Downs National Park is no more than about 5 miles from South Heighton. Firm ground and a clear way in matter more than the view for a food truck. Couples near the coast, within about 4 miles of South Heighton, sometimes want a beach feel. We need firm ground for the truck or trailer, so a clifftop lawn or venue car park may suit better than the sand.

Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- A serving spot close to the marquee or reception area
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

How it compares
Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Tacos cover them with separate fillings. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
