Mexican catering in Moulsecoomb, served fresh
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so each plate is exactly how they like it. It works well for garden get-togethers and anniversaries and engagements, serving loaded nachos, quesadillas and fresh salsas and guacamole.
For a place the size of Moulsecoomb, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue hire, and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Planning a food truck in Moulsecoomb
Moulsecoomb is about 1 mile north-east of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. Events in Moulsecoomb are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We cater in 30 places across Brighton and Hove, from the larger towns to small villages.
For a christening or wedding at a church such as St. Andrew's, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Close to Moulsecoomb are historic houses such as Preston Manor & Gardens (1.8 miles west) and Royal Pavilion (2.1 miles south-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and vehicles early. Venues in and around the South Downs National Park, within about 6 miles of Moulsecoomb, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before booking. The coast is within about 3 miles of Moulsecoomb, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots normally need permission from the council or landowner.
For Mexican catering in BN2 and BN1, we plan around your venue and the route in and timings. Streets in the area include Natal Road, Lewes Road and The Avenue, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Close by, we cover events in Bevendean (1 mile south-east), Hollingdean (1 mile west), Hollingbury (1 mile north-west), Brighton (1 mile south-west) and Hanover (1 mile south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Brighton and Hove (4 miles west), Hove (3 miles west), Aldrington (4 miles west), Hangleton (4 miles west), Saltdean (4 miles south-east) and West Blatchington (3 miles west).
Nearby you will also find Churchill Square (2.3 miles south-west) and Clayton Castle (4.6 miles north). Open spaces near Moulsecoomb include Bevendean Down and Newmarket Hill.

The menu, item by item
Tacos
Soft tortillas, warmed and filled, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms are agreed with you.
Build-your-own taco bar
Fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out for guests to help themselves, with warm tortillas to fill. Everyone builds their own.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. All we need is someone to show us the agreed spot.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Should I do it myself?
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.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Why choose Mexican catering in Moulsecoomb?
With a barbecue, someone usually ends up stuck at the grill. Book us and the cooking happens in our truck or trailer. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

Moulsecoomb: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at St. Andrew's?
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.
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.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We bring our food truck or trailer to your venue, cook to order and serve tacos, burritos and more from the hatch. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How much does Mexican catering cost in Moulsecoomb?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
Yes. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Do you need electricity?
