Mexican catering in Borden, served fresh
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. At engagement celebrations and garden parties, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and quesadillas for your guests.
In a rural place like Borden, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
What affects the price in Borden
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Serving staff
- The number of people
- How long we are needed on site
- Food, drinks or both
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

- What power and water the site has

What else we do in Borden
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early

When service ends, we pack down and clear our area quietly.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.
Common questions in Borden
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Cromers Wood?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues 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.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you serve drinks as well?
Our drinks bar can be added to any booking, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we’ll check that with you.
Do you come to Borden?
We do. Borden is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
What food do you serve?
Tacos and taco bars, plus burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. See our sample menu.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
For event organisers in Borden
Organising a club, school or community event in Borden? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
