Mexican catering for your event in Tickham
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so nobody ends up with something they don’t want. It works well for family celebrations and milestone birthdays, serving loaded nachos, fresh salsas and guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
Somewhere as small as Tickham, a garden or field is often the venue. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
FAQs for Tickham
Do you come out to small places like Tickham?
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Tickham.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
What’s on the menu?
Tacos, build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. See our sample menu.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
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.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast or barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.

Planning a food truck in Tickham
Tickham is about 3 miles west of Faversham, in Kent. From the centre of Tickham to the outskirts, Mexican catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Tickham is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. We cater right across the region, from Tickham to Canterbury (about 12 miles away).
Guests arriving by train will find that Teynham station is about 1.4 miles away. When the service is at a church such as Church of St Mary, the food normally happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck.
This part of Kent takes in ME9. We can cater an event on streets such as Nouds Lane and Tickham Lane. For events just outside Tickham, we cover Lewson Street (1 mile north-east), Loyterton (1 mile south-west), Norton Ash (1 mile north-east), Teynham (1 mile north) and Deerton Street (1 mile north-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Maidstone (13 miles west), Ashford (12 miles south), Canterbury (12 miles east), Sittingbourne (4 miles north-west), Whitstable (10 miles east) and Faversham (3 miles east).

Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Guests with serious allergies should speak to us in advance
- Tell us how many children are coming
We have allergen information for every dish at the hatch.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
