Swalecliffe: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St John the Baptist?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
How far is Swalecliffe from central London?
About 51 miles from central London, and we cover it.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.

Planning for every diet
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Tell us what other food is being served
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, though guests need somewhere under cover to eat.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.

Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Swalecliffe: venues, access and local tips
Swalecliffe is about 2 miles east of Whitstable, in Kent. We bring Mexican catering to gardens, halls and venues around Swalecliffe. We serve in all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 6 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Church of St John the Baptist, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Swalecliffe Community Primary School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking. The coast is within about 2 miles of Swalecliffe, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots generally need permission from the council or landowner.
Anywhere in CT5, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Whether your event is on Kemp Road, Brook Road and Burnan Road or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access.
