Mexican catering for your event in Snargate
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so nobody ends up with something they do not want. We serve quesadillas, tacos and loaded nachos, and it’s a good fit for fundraisers and school events and garden parties.
Somewhere as small as Snargate, 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. You will know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Where the truck can go in Snargate
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Whatever the occasion, the serving truck can be a highlight. We can cater:
- Charity and school events
- Big birthday celebrations
- Garden get-togethers
- Markets and community events
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Dunstan, the food typically happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Common questions in Snargate
Which station should guests use for Snargate?
Guests can use Appledore (Kent) station, about 1.1 miles north-west of Snargate.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Dunstan?
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’ll check the access.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you cater for big events?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you cater for special diets?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, though we cannot guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, Kent included. Find your area.
Mexican catering or something else?
For food that feels relaxed but generous, a taco bar or a menu of tacos, burritos and nachos is hard to beat. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Getting an accurate quote
For a quote, it helps to have:
- The address or venue name
- Your menu ideas
- The date and time of the event
- How we drive in and where we can park
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, tell us about it on our contact page.
How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in Snargate until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
