Mexican catering for your event in Southborough
Keep it simple or go further: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you. On the menu are tacos, burrito bowls and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it suits weddings and evening receptions and engagement and anniversary parties.
Around Southborough, events are often in gardens, fields, local halls or nearby venues. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Planning a food truck in Southborough
Southborough is about 1 mile north of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. Tell us where your event in Southborough will be, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up. We cater in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is London, about 28 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Christ Church, the food normally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. Guests arriving by train will find that High Brooms station is about 1 mile away. With the High Weald National Landscape about 8 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Southborough. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.
Mexican catering in TN4 and TN2 is planned around your venue and access and your guests. From London Road, Church Road and Norton Road or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access. Being close to the A26, Southborough is easy for us to reach for your event.

Planners, venues and businesses
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Comparing your options
Next to a hog roast or a 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 simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Why us?
- Allergen-aware menus
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
- Count children separately
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
Guests order at the hatch and we serve them there and then, so everything goes out hot.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.

Common questions in Southborough
How far is Southborough from London?
It is about 28 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Christ Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you do a drinks bar?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will check the licensing with you before the day.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. A December event in Southborough will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
