Mexican catering for Tonge Corner events
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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. Our taco bar guide explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Mexican catering in Tonge Corner, from our food truck or trailer
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 staff parties and office lunches and garden parties, with a build-your-own taco bar, loaded nachos and tacos.
Somewhere like Tonge Corner, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
What’s on the menu
Quesadillas
Toasted tortillas with melted cheese inside.
Burritos and burrito bowls

Tonge Corner: your questions answered
How far is Tonge Corner from London?
About 39 miles from central London.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Giles: 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.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
Diets are planned in advance, with options kept separate, though we can’t guarantee a kitchen with no trace of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Can you serve in bad weather?
The truck or trailer serves in the rain, though guests need a covered place to eat.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Planners, venues and businesses
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Planning a food truck in Tonge Corner

We cater in 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Tonge Corner to Canterbury (about 14 miles away).
