Mexican party catering near Blean
About our Mexican party catering in Blean
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with alcohol-free options for drivers and children. Licensing is checked with you first. It works well for street and neighbourhood parties and exam-results parties, with tacos, loaded nachos and guacamole and salsas.
In a small place like Blean, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we’ll plan around it. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
How it compares
If you want special but not formal, tacos and a taco bar fit perfectly. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Blean: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Blean?
Canterbury West station, about 2.1 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Cosmus and St Damian?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Can you supply plates?
Tell us what you need and we will explain the options with your quote.
How much does party catering cost?
Every party is quoted for individually, depending on numbers, menu and where you are. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

Space, access and the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- The venue’s or landowner’s permission for a catering vehicle
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- Space for guests to queue
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.
How the day works
Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Throwing a late-May party in Blean? The sun sets at about 8:45pm. After that, a few lamps or fairy lights near the serving area help.
- We start by checking your date and the space.
- You pick the fillings and extras.
- We confirm power, water and the way in.
- We serve hot food at the time you choose.
- We pack away and the party carries on.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
