About our Mexican party catering in Grafty Green
We cater parties at homes, village halls with outdoor space, clubs and hired venues. Send us the address and we will check the way in. Popular choices include guacamole and salsas, burritos and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits big birthdays and anniversary celebrations.
In a small place like Grafty Green, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground, and we’ll plan around it. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. At midsummer, it’s light in Grafty Green until about 9:15pm, 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.
- Send us your date, where the party is, numbers and dietary needs.
- We put a menu together and quote for it.
- Before the day, we check the space, the way in, power and water.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- After serving, we tidy up and leave you to celebrate.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

What affects the price in Grafty Green
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Travel, parking and access
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The menu you choose
- The number of people
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
What we need to know
The more we know about your party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- A picture of where we’d park
- Roughly how many adults and children
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Grafty Green parties: what to know
Grafty Green is about 8 miles south-east of Maidstone, in Kent. Tell us where your party in Grafty Green will be, and we will plan the journey and set-up. We cater in 922 places in Kent. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 18 miles away.
After a christening at a church like Church of St Nicholas, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends. Parks such as Kiln Wood generally need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often easier. Grafty Green is within about 5 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, so a garden party here may come with a lovely view. Country lanes can be narrow, so tell us about the route in.
Here we cover the ME17 postcode area, and we can cater your party anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Your party could be at a home on Church Road, Woodcock Lane and Headcorn Road.

Grafty Green questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
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.
Which station is closest to Grafty Green?
Lenham station, about 2.1 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Often, yes. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
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.
What food and drinks do you offer?
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.
