Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Share your running order
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Look into parking permissions if the truck cannot go off-road
- Check gate widths and any height limits
The hatch opens at the time you choose.

Bossingham: your questions answered
Could we book your food truck for a private event in Bossingham?
Yes, as long as we’re available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
We can serve from the truck for the wedding meal, the evening or both. We fit service around your running order. See our food truck wedding guide.
Can we add drinks?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Licensing is checked with you.
How does food truck hire work?
We bring our food truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. Only your guests are served.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
What does it cost to hire the truck?
We don’t publish set prices, because each hire is different. Tell us your plans and we will quote for your event. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water when you book.
Step by step
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. By late September, it is dark in Bossingham at around 7:00pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:45pm.

Where the truck can go in Bossingham
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations
- Power and water, confirmed with each booking
- Gate widths, overhead branches and soft ground checked in advance
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
Comparing your options
A marquee kitchen with plated service needs more space, more staff and more time. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch, needing level ground, access and the venue’s permission. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What you get with us
- A clear quote
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- A plan agreed before the day
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
