Mexican catering for Street End events
Mexican catering in Street End, from our truck or trailer
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Street End and nearby: gardens, fields, yards and venues with hardstanding, wherever we can get in safely. At milestone birthdays and engagement and anniversary parties, we can serve quesadillas, burritos and burrito bowls.
For a rural spot like Street End, fields and drives need a little planning: the gate, the ground and the route from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.
For event organisers in Street End
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Should I do it myself?

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

The process
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. In Street End, 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’s dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

FAQs for Street End
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station is closest to Street End?
Guests can use Canterbury East station, about 2.1 miles north of Street End.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
What does Mexican catering cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you cater for big events?
It depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will plan around them.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you come to Street End?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Street End and across Kent. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
