Food truck hire for your event in Ashford
Fillings might include carnitas, al pastor-style pork or chicken tinga, with vegan choices like black bean and sweet potato. There are options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. For back-garden parties and launch events, we can serve tacos from the hatch, vegan tacos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
With our truck or trailer hired for your event in Ashford, nobody is stuck in the kitchen. Guests queue at the hatch and order, so leave room for a queue near the serving side. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- Seating or standing room near the truck
- A flat parking spot on firm ground or hardstanding
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:

- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
- Collect diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
Running late? Tell us.
