FAQs for Herne Common
Could you come to a seaside event near Herne Common?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots usually need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Will you travel to a small place like Herne Common?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We arrive with our own mobile kitchen. We set up at your venue, serve hot food to order and pack down afterwards.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

About our Mexican catering in Herne Common
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. It works well for summer garden parties and family celebrations, with quesadillas, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
For a rural spot like Herne Common, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Planning for every diet
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Tell us how many children are coming
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away, leaving the space as we found it.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.
What happens on the day
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Daylight in Herne Common runs to about 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Preparing for the day
