About our Mexican catering in Tonge
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: a taco menu, or tacos plus loaded nachos, quesadillas and burrito bowls. Our Mexican drinks bar can be added too, with licensing checked with you. It works well for weddings and evening receptions and garden get-togethers, with quesadillas, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a rural place like Tonge, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
Why choose Mexican catering in Tonge?
If you want food that feels relaxed without being basic, tacos, burritos and nachos make a strong choice. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

A gathering in Milton Creek Country Park would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early. If people are travelling in by rail, Teynham station is about 1.7 miles away.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
