Mexican catering in Wallend, from our truck or trailer
Mixed diets are easy to plan with Mexican street food. We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish. It suits markets and community events and family gatherings and christenings, serving tacos, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a rural place like Wallend, 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. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
How the day works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in Wallend until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Send allergy details to us in writing
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
We work around your timings, and adapt if they move.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla, and they’re easy to adapt for different diets.
Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Wallend: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Wallend?
Guests can use Sheerness-On-Sea station, about 2.6 miles east of Wallend.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St James?
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.

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
