Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Check gate widths and any height limits
- Count children separately
- Ask guests with severe allergies to speak to us beforehand
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
Guests come to the hatch, order and wait a short moment for hot food.
Our Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can join the truck.
Food truck hire in Waterham, from our truck or trailer
Food truck hire means our food truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. Unlike a stall at a festival or market, it’s a private hire, so the menu and timings are set around your event. On the menu are vegan tacos, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch, and it’s a good fit for staff appreciation days and weddings.
For a rural spot like Waterham, food truck hire needs a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the route from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Waterham is about 3 miles south-west of Whitstable, in Kent. Anywhere in ME13, we will come to your venue or site, as long as there is access. We cater in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Waterham to Canterbury (about 6 miles away).
For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Whitstable station, about 3.4 miles north-east. Roughly 48 miles separate Waterham from central London. A private event by the sea is within reach, as Waterham is within about 4 miles of the coast. Promenades and beaches typically need the council’s agreement for a catering vehicle.

Waterham questions
Is it possible to have you in Seasalter Levels?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
What’s the nearest station to Waterham for guests?
Guests can use Whitstable station, about 3.4 miles north-east of Waterham.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
Is food truck hire right for your event?
Most guests have seen a burger van. Tacos and burritos from a truck feel different. There is no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
Why book with us
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
- Service planned around your numbers
- A menu agreed with you
See our prices page and the cost guide.
Step by step
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. Late-September events in Waterham see sunset at about 7:00pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:45pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- We agree a hatch menu and send a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Name one person we can ask on the day

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Who books food truck hire in Waterham?
Guests can come back to the hatch when they’re ready, rather than all at once.
In Waterham and nearby, we can cater all sorts of events. Popular bookings include:
- Wedding evening food
- Big birthdays
- Private outdoor parties
- Engagements and anniversaries
A food truck in Seasalter Levels would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first.

- Exactly what’s included in the price
- How late numbers can change
