Mexican catering in Kingston, from our truck or trailer
Planning taco catering for an event in Kingston? Serving from a truck or trailer keeps the mood easy-going. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food, which suits informal events. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and quesadillas, and it suits engagement celebrations and leaving dos and retirement parties.
In a smaller place like Kingston, your own garden, drive or a local hall is often the simplest option: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Count children separately
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Space for guests to queue
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How the day works
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. Around midsummer it stays light in Kingston until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and how many.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
Preparing for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Is the food very hot?
It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
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.
