About our Mexican catering in Teynham
Keep it simple or go further: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar. It suits festivals, fairs and markets and company summer parties, serving loaded nachos, burrito bowls and quesadillas.
A place like Teynham may have a hall or a club with a car park nearby; a truck or trailer can work at any of them, with permission and a level spot. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

What else we do in Teynham
Teynham questions
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
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. Tell us where the reception will be.
How far is Teynham from central London?
About 40 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How does mobile Mexican catering work?
We arrive with our own mobile kitchen. We set up, serve your guests and clear away when service ends.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Can we add a bar?
We can. Our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We’ll go through the licensing with you.
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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.

Close to Teynham are historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (4.4 miles south-east). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before you book one. For guests coming by train, Teynham has its own station, Teynham station.
We cater events across the ME9 postcode area. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Station Road, London Road and Belle Friday Close or the roads around them.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
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.
Diets, allergies and planning
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
- Count children separately
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Send allergy details to us in writing
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch, so guests can check before they order.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
