Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

Why choose food truck hire in Dymchurch?
Nothing is needed from a venue kitchen, so gardens, fields and grounds all become options with the venue’s agreement.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Client events and product launches
- Private parties in fields and grounds
- Engagement parties
- Big birthdays
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church.

Common questions in Dymchurch
How far is Dymchurch from London?
About 57 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Which station is closest to Dymchurch?
Guests can use Westenhanger station, about 4.6 miles north of Dymchurch.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you provide drinks?
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.
Do you cook on site?
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.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
