How our Mexican catering works in Bircholt Forstal
Mexican street food makes mixed diets simple. We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. At weddings, day or evening and summer garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and tacos.
For a rural spot like Bircholt Forstal, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter.

Questions from Bircholt Forstal
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
What’s the nearest station to Bircholt Forstal for guests?
Guests can use Westenhanger station, about 3.8 miles south-east of Bircholt Forstal.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you cater for special diets?
Yes. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
How much will it cost?
We quote for each event, based on guest numbers, the menu, the venue and timings. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
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.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Quesadillas go down well with children.
Comparing your options
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
