How our Mexican catering works in Shepway
Mexican street food makes mixed diets simple. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. It works well for big birthday celebrations and christenings and family parties, serving burritos, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
In and around Shepway, gardens and local halls are common choices. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Make sure the menu has a vegan option
- Give us separate numbers for children
On the day, we arrive in good time to park up and get ready. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Loaded nachos make a good sharing starter or as a late snack.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Perfect for your event in Shepway
Food is cooked to order and served hot, rather than sitting out on a buffet table.

Close to Shepway are historic houses such as Stoneacre (1.4 miles east) and Leeds Castle (3.6 miles east). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before you book one.

What’s on the menu
Loaded nachos
Loaded nachos are perfect for sharing. We can plan a dairy-free version.

Comparing your options
With a barbecue, someone usually ends up stuck at the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our truck or trailer. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Shepway questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Martin's Church?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
How far is Shepway from central London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
How many guests can you cater for?
It depends on the event. As a guide, it’s around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.

There is no fixed price list, as each event is different. Send your details and you’ll get a quote for your event.
