Mexican catering for your event in Paddlesworth
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, which works well for wedding breakfasts and evening food and big birthday celebrations.
In a rural place like Paddlesworth, access is the main thing to plan: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. You will know what’s included before booking: menu, timings and any add-ons.

How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. In Paddlesworth, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve hot food from our food truck or trailer.
- Once everyone has eaten, we tidy our serving area and head off.
Before we arrive
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Let us know the timings for the day

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, thanks to separate fillings and toppings. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

DIY taco night versus 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, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Common questions in Paddlesworth
How far is Paddlesworth from central London?
It is about 25 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Leybourne Lakes Country Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Where the truck can go in Paddlesworth
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- Space for a taco-bar table if you’ve chosen one
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
