Your questions about Mexican catering in Egerton Forstal
Which station should guests use for Egerton Forstal?
Pluckley station, about 2.6 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs 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.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
Yes. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Can you serve in bad weather?
We serve from the truck or trailer whatever the weather, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Mexican catering for your event in Egerton Forstal
A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Everyone builds their own tacos from what’s laid out, so nobody ends up with something they do not want. On the menu are tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for family celebrations and engagement and anniversary parties.
Somewhere like Egerton Forstal, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
