What happens on the day
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. A December event in Keycol will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

Mexican catering in Keycol, served fresh
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case, so tell us your numbers. Popular choices include quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for engagement and anniversary parties and festivals, fairs and markets.
In a hamlet or village like Keycol, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Common questions in Keycol
Is Keycol close to London?
Roughly 35 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Will you travel to a small place like Keycol?
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.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
Can we add a bar?
Yes. The drinks bar offers margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free drinks. Licensing is checked with you first.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How much will it cost?
There’s no fixed price list, as each event is different. Tell us your numbers and plans and we’ll send a quote for your event.
Planning a food truck in Keycol
Keycol is about 2 miles west of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Keycol or on the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cater in 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Keycol to Canterbury (about 18 miles away).
If people are travelling in by rail, Newington station is about 1.1 miles away. If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Borden Church of England Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. With the Kent Downs National Landscape about 7 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Keycol. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.
This part of Kent takes in ME9, so your event can be anywhere in it. Local streets include Rooks View, Hill Farm View and Rook Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Nearby, we also cater events in Bobbing (1 mile east), Chestnut Street (1 mile south), Newington (1 mile west), Danaway (1 mile south-west) and Oad Street (2 miles south). Larger places within reach include Maidstone (9 miles south-west), Gravesend (15 miles north-west), Whitstable (15 miles east), Faversham (9 miles east), Minster (7 miles north-east) and Kings Hill (13 miles south-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Sittingbourne and Milton Urban District (1.8 miles east) and Bayford Court (2.3 miles east).
- Schools near Keycol include Westlands School (1 mile south-east)
- Local pubs include George Inn (1 mile west)
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.

- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
