Mexican catering for your event in Highsted
Need taco catering in Highsted? You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. It suits christenings and family parties and fairs and festivals, with a build-your-own taco bar, quesadillas and burrito bowls.
Somewhere as small as Highsted, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.
How we price Mexican catering
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Serving staff
- The menu you choose
- Parking and the route in
- What the venue already provides
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- The date and time of the event
- What power and water the site has
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you are ready, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Organising for someone else?

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
How the day works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. Daylight in Highsted runs to about 8:50pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. If your event carries on later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and how many.

Questions from Highsted
Do you come out to small places like Highsted?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
How many guests can you cater for?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Bigger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.

Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Highsted: venues, access and local tips
Highsted is about 2 miles south of Sittingbourne, in Kent. For an event in Highsted, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access in and around Highsted. We cater in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater right across the region, from Highsted to Maidstone (about 10 miles away).
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Rodmersham School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Guests leaving a church like Church of St Nicholas after a christening could walk over to a nearby garden where the tacos are ready. With the Kent Downs National Landscape about 6 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Highsted. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.
Wherever your event is in ME9, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Stockers Hill and Highsted Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Let us know about any other food at the event

- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
