Planning an event in Kingsnorth?
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. Around midsummer it stays light in Kingsnorth until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our food truck or trailer.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Name one person we can ask on the day
How to get a price
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Mexican catering in Kingsnorth, served fresh
Every menu is agreed with you, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. It works well for charity and school events and birthday parties, serving tacos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
For a rural spot like Kingsnorth, 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. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Perfect for your event in Kingsnorth
Every order goes out hot, rather than sitting out on a buffet table.
A truck or trailer suits almost any gathering. In Kingsnorth, you could book us for occasions like:
- Staff parties and office lunches
- School fairs and fundraisers
- Christenings and family parties
- Anniversaries and engagements
A gathering in Ashford Green Corridors would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early.

Kingsnorth questions
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you come out to small places like Kingsnorth?
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.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can you set up at our venue?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we’ll confirm what we need. We also need room for a queue.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
How many guests can you cater for?
That depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will take it from there.
Do you do a drinks bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we’ll check that with you.
What’s on the menu?
We agree the menu with each client, with fillings such as chicken tinga, carnitas or black beans. The sample menu shows the options.
What affects the price in Kingsnorth
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many guests we’re serving

- Distance and access to the venue
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
What we need to know
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- The date and rough timings
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The venue or postcode
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
Planning a food truck in Kingsnorth
Kingsnorth is about 2 miles south of Ashford, in Kent. For Mexican catering in Kingsnorth, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards. We cover 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 15 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Michael, the food generally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. Nearby historic houses include Godinton House (3.2 miles north-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and vehicles early. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 6 miles of Kingsnorth, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before booking.
We cover events in every part of TN23 and TN26 and the streets around it. Your event could be at a home on Church Hill, South Lea and Ashford Road. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Park Farm (1 mile north-east), Stubb's Cross (1 mile west), Stanhope (1 mile north), Newtown (1 mile north-east) and Finberry (1 mile east). Within a short drive, we also cover Canterbury (15 miles north-east), Folkestone (13 miles east), Faversham (14 miles north), Hythe (10 miles east), Davington (14 miles north) and Preston (13 miles north).
Other landmarks nearby include William Harvey Hospital (2.8 miles north-east) and Ashford Designer Outlet (1.5 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Orlestone Forest.
- Local schools include John Wallis Academy (0.8 miles north)
- Local pubs include Queen's Head Public House (under half a mile north-west)
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Include at least one vegan filling
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
For a taco bar, we lay the fillings, salsas and toppings out on a table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.

Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:

- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
