Mexican party catering in Darland, from our food truck or trailer

A country party near Darland 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. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Give separate numbers for children
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Have enough chairs for most guests
- Plan a covered spot for wet weather
We are set up before guests arrive, so food is ready when you want it.
Extra salsas and toppings for the taco bar.

Questions from Darland
Which station is closest to Darland?
Guests can use Gillingham (Kent) station, about 1.7 miles north of Darland.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Christ Church?
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 will check the access.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan options, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will go through the licensing with you.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
