Mexican catering in Wainscott, served fresh
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats. We serve tacos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, which works well for office lunches and team days and engagement and anniversary parties.
In and around Wainscott, gardens and local halls are common choices. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
The menu, item by item
Salsas and guacamole
Guacamole and salsas, freshly made, with lime and fresh toppings.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a choice of fillings, topped with salsa and fresh toppings. Fillings are agreed with you, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or spiced mushrooms.
Occasions we cater for in Wainscott
You don’t need a kitchen, so gardens, fields and outdoor venues are all possible.
Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:
- Office lunches and team days
- Fairs and festivals
- Leaving dos and retirement parties
- Garden get-togethers
Parks such as Broomhill Park typically need the owner’s permission for vehicles and catering, so ask before you plan an event there.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the price includes, item by item
- Whether plates, napkins and cutlery are included
- How dietary needs and allergies are handled
- The wet-weather plan
What affects the price in Wainscott
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- How many guests we’re serving
- How many staff you need
- How long we’re needed on site
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- What you’d like on the menu
- A picture of where we’d park
- The address or venue name
Send us the date, your venue or ME2 postcode and guest numbers, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just drop us a line using the enquiry form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Questions from Wainscott
Could you serve in Broomhill Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
What’s the nearest station to Wainscott for guests?
The closest is Strood station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Mexican catering or something else?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What you get with us
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Menus chosen with you
- A plan agreed before the day
See how we price or the cost guide.
Planning the serving area
We will be honest if a space won’t work. The main points are:
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Space for guests to queue
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
