How our Mexican catering works in Hoaden
Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. At birthday parties and family gatherings and christenings, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and burritos for your guests.
For a rural spot like Hoaden, fields and drives need a little planning: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Hoaden: venues, access and local tips
Hoaden is about 7 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. Events in Hoaden are planned around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. We serve in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater right across the region, from Hoaden to Canterbury (about 7 miles away).
For a fête or sports day at a school such as Ash Cartwright and Kelsey Church of England Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking. Close to Hoaden are historic houses such as Goodnestone Park (3.4 miles south). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before booking one.
Wherever your event is in CT3, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Overland Lane and Walmestone Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Close by, we cover events in Nash (1 mile south-west), Perry (1 mile west), Elmstone (1 mile north-west), Shatterling (1 mile south-west) and Durlock (1 mile south-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Canterbury (7 miles west), Margate (9 miles north-east), Dover (11 miles south), Folkestone (15 miles south), Ramsgate (8 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (9 miles north-east).
Nearby you will also find White Mill (3.5 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Monk's Wall nature reserve.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
Rain does not stop us serving from the truck or trailer, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.

Comparing your options
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
