Corporate Mexican catering in Smarden, served fresh
A lunch of tacos or burrito bowls is quick and filling, and a build-your-own taco bar suits longer breaks. For winter staff parties and staff wellbeing days, we can serve burritos, nachos to share and tacos for your guests.
An away day near Smarden is a good fit for street food: it needs no kitchen, just level, firm ground and access. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

What happens on the day
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. In late May, sunset in Smarden is around 8:45pm, and by late September it is about 7:00pm. That helps when you are choosing a start time.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, plus any documents the site needs from caterers.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed with you or your venue.
- We set up and serve your team on schedule.
- We clear away as soon as service ends.
How to prepare
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand

Organising for someone else?
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Organising a club, school or community event in Smarden? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
DIY taco night or 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: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Spread lunch times across departments
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Book a parking space or loading bay for the truck or trailer
Allergen information is available for every dish.
Loaded nachos for a drinks reception.
Your questions about corporate Mexican catering in Smarden
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Smarden?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you keep it mild?
It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
What does corporate Mexican catering cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you park at our offices?
Often, yes, if there is a suitable space for the truck or trailer and the site allows it. We will check access with your facilities team.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
