Questions from Detling
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to The Larches?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
It is all in the planning. Share the timings and headcount and we’ll plan service to match.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will go through the licensing with you.
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, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you park at our offices?
Car parks, yards and loading areas often work, if the access and site rules allow. London sites need extra planning for parking and loading.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
