Mexican catering in Broadwater Down, from our food truck or trailer
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. Popular choices include fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and quesadillas, and it’s a good fit for charity and school events and family gatherings and christenings.
There may be a hall or club near Broadwater Down if your garden is small; a truck or trailer can work at any of them, with permission and a level spot. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Working with your venue
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To get it right:
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.
How the day works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. In Broadwater Down, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Before the day, we agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Questions from Broadwater Down
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the High Weald 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.
Could you serve in Dunorlan Park?
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 will send what they need from us.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Kent included. See all areas.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Can you set up at our venue?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
