Planning an event in Bonnington?
The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t normally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Evenings in Bonnington stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm. Festoon lights or floodlights help once it gets dark.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- We put together a menu around your guests and quote for it.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our food truck or trailer.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Tell us what power and water the site has
Getting a price
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Mexican catering in Bonnington, served fresh
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats. On the menu are loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls, and it is a good fit for summer garden parties and big birthday celebrations.
In a rural place like Bonnington, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A barbecue often means a host tied to the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our truck or trailer. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:

When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.

Bonnington questions
How far is Bonnington from London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London.
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.
What if it rains?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We can. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
What we need at the venue
If a space is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
