Mexican party catering in Broadstairs
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Plan a vegan filling alongside the others
- Make sure most people can sit to eat
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
Children love watching their food being made, and quesadillas are a safe bet.
Quesadillas for younger guests.
How our Mexican party catering works in Broadstairs
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that’s wide enough. Send us a photo if you’re unsure. At christenings and naming days and graduation celebrations, we will put together a menu of tacos, guacamole and salsas and a build-your-own taco bar and more.
Garden parties are a favourite in Broadstairs, with a local hall or club as a good back-up if access is tight. We need a level spot to park and room for a queue. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Broadstairs questions
What’s the nearest station to Broadstairs for guests?
Guests can use Broadstairs station, which is right in Broadstairs.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Parish Church of St Peter the Apostle?
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.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Do you have vegan options?
We keep vegetarian and vegan fillings separate. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to speak to us first.
Do you cater at halls and clubs?
Generally. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Let us know what you’d like and we’ll include the options in your quote.

A summer party in Broadstairs stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Perfect for your party in Broadstairs
It suits most celebrations, from a first birthday to a ruby wedding.
Whatever the occasion, the serving truck can be a highlight. We’re happy to cater:
- Graduation celebrations
- Family get-togethers
- Baby celebrations
- Garden parties
After a christening at a church like Parish Church of St Peter the Apostle, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends.
