Mexican catering for Richborough Port events
Mexican catering in Richborough Port, from our truck or trailer
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. On the menu are loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it suits weddings, day or evening and anniversaries and engagements.
Somewhere as small as Richborough Port, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
Allergen information is on hand for every dish, so guests can check before they order.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.

Questions from Richborough Port
Is it possible to have you in Sandwich and Pegwell Bay?
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 will send what they need from us.
Could you come to a seaside event near Richborough Port?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
What space do you need?
Send us details of the venue and the access, and we will confirm what we need. We also need room for a queue.
How big an event can you cater?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- Space for guests to queue
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Should I do it myself?
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.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Comparing your options
Pizza and burger vans are familiar choices. Tacos, burritos and nachos feel a little different, yet it’s still food most guests know and like. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

What happens on the day

- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
