Mexican catering near Farthing Green
Mexican catering in Farthing Green, from our truck or trailer
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food. It suits garden parties and anniversaries and engagements, with a build-your-own taco bar, burrito bowls and tacos.
Somewhere like Farthing Green, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

How it compares
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Why us?
- A menu agreed with you
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer

Common questions in Farthing Green
How far is Farthing Green from central London?
It’s about 37 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you come to events 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 have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Catering for every guest
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
- Include at least one vegan filling
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests help themselves while we keep it topped up.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
