Mexican catering for Burlings events
Common questions in Burlings
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Is Burlings close to London?
Roughly 15 miles from the centre of London.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you come to Burlings?
We do. We serve at events in Burlings and across Kent. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
Mexican catering in Burlings, 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. At weddings, day or evening and christenings and family parties, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, burrito bowls and burritos for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Burlings, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. You will know what’s included before booking: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price Mexican catering
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- The menu you choose
- Guest numbers
- Timings and hours
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Your menu ideas
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Expected numbers
- Where the event is
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just fill in our quote form.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Count children separately
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests build their own.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar.
Why choose Mexican catering in Burlings?

Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

- Menus for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
