Mexican catering in Maypole
Mexican catering in Maypole, served fresh
With mobile Mexican catering, we bring the kitchen with us: we park our food truck or trailer on site and serve hot food from it. No kitchen is needed on site. Popular choices include quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos, which works well for family gatherings and christenings and garden parties.
Somewhere like Maypole, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
What’s on the menu
Salsas and guacamole
The salsas and guacamole finish every plate.
Tacos
Street tacos are small, quick and full of flavour. We serve them with salsas and toppings, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Mexican catering around Maypole
Maypole is about 2 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. Anywhere in CT3, we can bring the truck or trailer to you, as long as there’s access. Maypole is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover.
Thinking of an event in Curtis Wood? Public parks typically need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first. A school such as Hoath Primary School running a summer fair or fundraiser could book a taco truck. Maypole is within about 3 miles of the sea, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots typically need permission from the council or landowner.
Mexican catering in CT3 is planned around your venue and access. Whether your event is on Maypole Lane and Maypole Road or anywhere nearby, we will plan where to park and serve. Close by, we cover events in Old Tree (1 mile east), Millbank (1 mile north), Hoath (1 mile south), Knave's Ash (1 mile south-west) and Highstead (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Canterbury (5 miles south-west), Margate (10 miles east), Dover (15 miles south-east), Ramsgate (11 miles east), Broadstairs (12 miles east) and Whitstable (6 miles west).
Well-known places in the area include St Martins Hospital (4.9 miles south-west). Open spaces near Maypole include West Blean and Thornden Woods.

Why choose Mexican catering in Maypole?
It handles mixed diets without fuss, since everyone picks their own fillings and toppings. Vegans and vegetarians eat as well as anyone else.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Typical bookings include:
- Wedding breakfasts and evening food
- Birthday parties
- Leaving dos and retirement parties
- Charity and school events
When the service is at a church such as Church of the Holy Cross, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.
Questions to ask before booking
- A clear list of what’s included
- The deposit and payment dates
- Whether VAT is included
- How each diet is kept separate
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Tell us how many children are coming
We arrive early enough to set up calmly. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or serving staff and we will confirm what’s possible with your quote.
How it compares
With a barbecue, someone normally ends up stuck at the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our truck or trailer, so you can enjoy your event. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.
Why book with us
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
