Mexican catering for Gill's Green events
About our Mexican catering in Gill's Green
We plan each menu with the client, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It suits christenings and family parties and school fairs and fundraisers, with tacos, burrito bowls and loaded nachos.
Somewhere as small as Gill's Green, a garden or field is often the venue. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Gill's Green: your questions answered
Will you travel to a small place like Gill's Green?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Which station should guests use for Gill's Green?
Guests can use Etchingham station, about 4.5 miles south-west of Gill's Green.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space.
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 will talk it through.
What space do you need?
Tell us about the venue and the way in, and we will check it works. We also need room for a queue.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
There’s no fixed price list, as each event is different. Send your details and you will get a quote for your event.
What happens if it rains?
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.
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Include at least one vegan filling
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
Where the truck can go in Gill's Green
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Tacos
Street tacos are small, quick and full of flavour. We serve them with salsas and toppings.
Salsas and guacamole
Salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your event, with lime and fresh toppings.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Mexican catering around Gill's Green

We serve in all 922 towns and villages across Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Gill's Green to Canterbury (about 29 miles away).
If you are celebrating after a service at a church like Church of All Saints, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal.

Some venues in protected landscapes have rules about vehicles and catering, so check with yours.

The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Gill's Green, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
