About our Mexican catering in Chitty
We bring our truck or trailer to events in and around Chitty: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, wherever we can get in safely. For retirement and leaving parties and milestone birthdays, we can serve burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and quesadillas for your guests.
For a rural spot like Chitty, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
Why choose Mexican catering in Chitty?
A food truck gives guests somewhere to gather, and people drift over as soon as service starts.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- Weddings, day or evening
- Leaving parties
- Family celebrations
If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like Church of St Mary the Virgin, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal.
What your quote should include
- How late numbers can change
- What the caterer needs from your venue
- How long the service runs
- What happens if it rains
A closer look at the menu
Tacos
Soft tortillas, warmed and filled, finished with salsas and toppings. Fillings are agreed with you, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms.
Loaded nachos
Nachos are easy sharing food, whether as a starter or a late bite. We can plan a dairy-free version.
Common questions in Chitty
Is it possible to have you in Grove Ferry Picnic Area?
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Do you serve in the rain?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, though guests need a covered place to eat.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Catering an event in Chitty
Chitty is about 4 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. For Mexican catering in Chitty, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Chitty. Chitty is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover. We cater right across the region, from Chitty to Canterbury (about 7 miles away).
Before you pencil in Grove Ferry Picnic Area, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Chislet Church of England Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking. Chitty is within about 4 miles of the sea, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots normally need permission from the council or landowner.
