About our wedding Mexican catering in Withdean

Evening guests want something hot, quick and filling, and tacos or loaded nachos from our truck or trailer fit the bill. On the menu are burrito bowls, evening tacos and loaded nachos, and it’s a good fit for weddings with mixed diets and marquee and garden weddings.

In Withdean, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a personal choice. A food truck by the marquee suits that kind of day. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Weddings in Withdean: venues, ceremonies and travel

Withdean is about 2 miles north-west of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. For a wedding in Withdean, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. Withdean is one of 30 towns and villages in Brighton and Hove we cover.

Wedding guests without a car will want to know that Preston Park station is in Withdean itself. A wedding party gathering in Withdean Park may need the park owner’s agreement, so ask before the day. Couples near Withdean have the South Downs National Park within about 6 miles, if a countryside setting appeals. Barns and fields there can be reached down narrow tracks, so we check the route with the venue. Couples near the coast, within about 3 miles of Withdean, 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.

This part of Brighton and Hove takes in BN1 and BN3, and we can cater your wedding anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Streets in the area include Home Road, Croft Road and Bates Road, and a wedding on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. You’ll find Withdean on the A23, so it’s easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

FAQs for Withdean

Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.

How far is Withdean from London?

It is about 45 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?

We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.

Can you do gluten-free food?

Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.

Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.

Can a taco bar feel special?

With good presentation, it feels like a celebration, and it suits a relaxed day.

How much is a food truck for an event?

We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a quote.

Comparing your options

A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian and vegan guests. Tacos cover them with separate fillings. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.

How we price wedding Mexican catering

Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Parking and the route in
  • What the venue already provides
  • How many guests we are serving
  • Food, drinks or both

Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

What to tell us

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • Where the event is
  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.

How it works

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. For a summer wedding in Withdean, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening food is usually served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.

  1. Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan the wedding breakfast, evening food or both with you.
  3. We agree timings and access with the venue.
  4. On the day, we set up and serve on cue.
  5. We clear our area once service ends.

How to prepare

  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
