Planning an event in Oversland?
Mexican catering for your event in Oversland
We bring our food truck or trailer to events in and around Oversland: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, wherever we can get in safely. At staff parties and office lunches and garden get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, burritos and tacos.
Somewhere as small as Oversland, 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. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Events we cater in Oversland
Mixed diets are easy to plan for, since everyone picks their own fillings and toppings. Vegans and vegetarians eat as well as anyone else.
These are some of the occasions we serve in Oversland and Kent:
- Company summer parties
- Garden parties
- School fairs and fundraisers
- Christenings and family parties
Parks such as Mount Ephraim Gardens normally need the owner’s permission for vehicles and catering, so ask before you plan an event there.
Questions to ask before you book
- The deadline for final numbers
- A clear list of what’s included
- How many staff are serving, and for how long
- How each diet is kept separate
For event organisers in Oversland
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Can I do a taco night myself?
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. Read our guide to taco bars.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. A December event in Oversland will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:15pm.
- 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.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Mexican catering around Oversland
Oversland is about 4 miles south-east of Faversham, in Kent. From the centre of Oversland to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Oversland is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we can bring Mexican catering.
Close to Oversland are historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (4.8 miles west). Estates and historic houses tend to set their own rules for caterers, so find out what yours allows first. Parents planning a fundraiser at a school like Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School might find a Mexican street-food truck draws families in. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Oversland, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book.

Comparing your options
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, Mexican street food is easier for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option

If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start.
