Southernden questions
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Which station is closest to Southernden?
Guests can use Headcorn station, about 2.1 miles south-west of Southernden.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
Can you cater for special diets?
Yes. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Mexican catering in Southernden, from our truck or trailer
Mexican street food makes mixed diets simple. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and allergen information is available for every dish. At engagement and anniversary parties and weddings and evening receptions, we will put together a menu of burritos, quesadillas and tacos for your guests.
In a small place like Southernden, events are usually in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Include at least one vegan filling
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
Planners, venues and businesses
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
How we price Mexican catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Distance and access to the venue
- How many staff you need
- Guest numbers
- Timings and hours
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Mexican catering or something else?

How it works
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. In Southernden, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Start by telling us about your event.
- We suggest fillings and extras and send a quote.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed in advance.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
