Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

Mexican catering in Thurnham, served fresh
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. For festivals, fairs and markets and family celebrations, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, tacos and quesadillas for your guests.
Somewhere like Thurnham, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Catering an event in Thurnham
Thurnham is about 3 miles north-east of Maidstone, in Kent. From the centre of Thurnham to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Thurnham is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we can bring Mexican catering. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 21 miles away.
For a christening or wedding at a church such as St Mary the Virgin Church, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Thinking of an event in White Horse Wood? Public parks normally need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 3 miles of Thurnham, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book.

Questions from Thurnham
Can you bring your truck or trailer to White Horse Wood?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you cater in villages like Thurnham?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop service from the hatch. Plan a marquee, gazebo or indoor space for guests to eat in.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll recommend how to serve.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you serve drinks as well?
You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. We will go through the licensing with you before the day.
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Planning the serving area
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Some distance from houses and neighbours
- Room for a serving table for the taco bar
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
What we offer
- Loaded nachos
- Build-your-own taco bar
- Quesadillas
- Tacos
- Burritos
- Burrito bowls
