Mexican catering for Durlock events
Mexican catering in Durlock, from our truck or trailer
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. Tortillas are warmed as we serve. It suits staff parties and office lunches and markets and community events, serving loaded nachos, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a small place like Durlock, events are normally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Mexican catering around Durlock
Durlock is about 7 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. From the centre of Durlock to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cater in all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 8 miles away.
Nearby historic houses include Goodnestone Park (2.7 miles south-west). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before booking one. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Ash Cartwright and Kelsey Church of England Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.

Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Count children separately
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Planners, venues and businesses
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
What Mexican catering costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Whether you need disposables
- Guest numbers
- What’s on the menu
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
What we need to know
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Expected numbers
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where we’d park
- How we drive in and where we can park
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not normally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered.

Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:

- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
