Mexican party catering for Chalk events
Where the truck can go in Chalk
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Details of power and water on site, agreed when you book
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
How our Mexican party catering works in Chalk
Taco bars are made for parties: guests fill their own tortillas from fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, so fussy eaters and adventurous ones are both happy. It suits big family gatherings and big birthdays, with tacos, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos.
A country party near Chalk is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. Everything is prepared fresh for your party and served from our truck or trailer.
Step by step
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. A summer party in Chalk stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You choose fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm power, water and the way in.
- Service starts at the agreed time.
- We pack away and the party carries on.
Getting ready for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Your questions about Mexican party catering in Chalk
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
Will you travel to a small place like Chalk?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
- Plan somewhere for guests to sit and eat
- Warn the neighbours about the truck
We arrive before your guests to set up.
Burrito bowls for guests who skip tortillas.

Chalk parties: what to know
Chalk is about 1 mile east of Gravesend, in Kent. Give us the address of your party in Chalk, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. Chalk is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. Our nearest city page is London, about 22 miles away.
Close to Chalk are historic houses such as Cobham College (2.8 miles south) and Temple Manor (4.4 miles south-east). A milestone birthday in a historic setting is possible, but find out early whether a food truck can get on site. After a christening at a church like Church of St Mary, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends.
