Mexican catering for your event in Deal
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Larger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case, so let us know how many you expect. For christenings and family parties and summer garden parties, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and quesadillas for your guests.
There are lots of options in a town like Deal: your own garden or drive, a club or hall with a car park, or a venue nearby. We will check the spot and the route in with you before the day. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Where the truck can go in Deal
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.

FAQs for Deal
Which station should guests use for Deal?
The closest is Deal station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Is Deal close to London?
It’s about 67 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Can you serve in bad weather?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, though guests need a covered place to eat.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Yes, we do. We serve at events in Deal and across Kent. Send us your date to check availability.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

The process
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Around midsummer it stays light in Deal until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Tell us what power and water the site has

Planning help
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
What Mexican catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Serving staff
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you need disposables
- 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.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many adults and children
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Why choose Mexican catering in Deal?
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
