About our Mexican catering in Knockholt
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food, which suits informal events. On the menu are burritos, quesadillas and tacos, and it suits fairs and festivals and garden parties.
Somewhere as small as Knockholt, a garden or field is often the venue. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Timings and hours
- Travel, parking and access
- How many guests we are serving
- What’s on the menu
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Roughly how many adults and children
- A picture of where we’d park
- Where the event is

Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Tell us what other food is being served
If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adjust.
Ask us about plates, cutlery and serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
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.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we’ll adjust the start of service where we can. Evenings in Knockholt stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. For anything running past sunset, think about lights near the hatch.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Before we arrive

- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
