Planning an event in Fant?
Mexican catering in Fant, from our food truck or trailer
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too. It works well for company summer parties and retirement and leaving parties, serving tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
A place like Fant may have a hall or a club with a car park nearby; any can work, given permission and level ground to park on. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Who books Mexican catering in Fant?
Food is cooked to order and served hot, rather than sitting out on a buffet table.
A truck or trailer suits almost any gathering. In Fant, you could book us for events such as:
- Garden parties
- Office lunches and team days
- Markets and community events
- Milestone birthdays
When the service is at a church such as Parish Church of St Andrew, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.

Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Put any allergies in writing for us
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.
How it compares
Platters dropped off in the morning are easy but forgettable. Live service from a truck or trailer gives guests hot food and something to talk about. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What you get with us
- Menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- We cover Fant and the whole of Kent
- A menu built around your guests
- Access, space and power checked in advance

Your questions about Mexican catering in Fant
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.
Which station is closest to Fant?
East Farleigh station, about 0.8 miles south of the centre.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We park our truck or trailer at your venue and serve hot Mexican street food from it. You can also have a build-your-own taco bar.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned in advance, with options kept separate, though we cannot guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Fant: venues, access and local tips
Fant is about 2 miles west of Maidstone, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Fant or on the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cover all 922 towns and villages in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 26 miles away.
Thinking of an event in Whatman Park? Public parks usually need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first. By rail: East Farleigh station is about 0.8 miles away. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Fant, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before booking.
We cater events across ME16 and ME15 and the streets around it. From Fant Lane, Glebe Lane and Burns Road or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
