Common questions in Forstal
How far is Forstal from London?
It is about 29 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Vegetarian and vegan fillings are cooked and served separately. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to speak to us first.
Mexican party catering for your party in Forstal
The menu is agreed with you, perhaps with carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, and vegan options like spiced mushrooms or black beans. For engagement and anniversary parties and garden parties, we can serve guacamole and salsas, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar for your guests.
In a small place like Forstal, 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 the set-up. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

Mexican party catering or something else?
A takeaway order is easy but forgettable. A truck or trailer serving hot food feels like an event. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

Step by step
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. At midsummer, it’s light in Forstal until about 9:15pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.
- 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.
Before we arrive
