Mexican party catering for your party in Grove
It is easy to cater for all ages and diets. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and quesadillas go down well with children, with allergen information for every dish. For exam-results parties and garden parties, we will put together a menu of tacos, burritos and guacamole and salsas and more.
Country parties near Grove suit a food truck or trailer: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

Party venues around Grove
Grove is about 5 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. From the centre of Grove to the outskirts, Mexican party catering works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cover 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 6 miles away.
Friends travelling without a car may like to know that Sturry station is about 3.8 miles away. Around Grove, historic houses include Goodnestone Park (4.7 miles south). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. Near the coast, within about 6 miles, a beach-side party is tempting, but seafront spots need permission and firm ground for the truck or trailer.
Anywhere in CT3, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. For parties just outside Grove, we cover Preston (1 mile south-east), Upstreet (1 mile north), West Stourmouth (1 mile north-east), East Stourmouth (2 miles east) and Sarre (2 miles north-east). Larger places within reach include Canterbury (6 miles west), Margate (9 miles north-east), Dover (13 miles south), Ramsgate (9 miles east), Broadstairs (10 miles east) and Whitstable (8 miles west).
A little further out are St Martins Hospital (4.9 miles south-west).
- Local pubs include The Grove Ferry Inn (0.9 miles north)
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Add a diet question to the invitation
- Tell us about any severe allergies before the party
- Have enough chairs for most guests
- Include at least one vegan filling
When you’re ready to eat, we start serving.
Bowls as an alternative to tacos.
What’s on the menu

Everything for tacos, laid out for guests to help themselves, so everyone builds their own.
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a filling and fresh toppings, served hot from the truck or trailer.
Your questions about Mexican party catering in Grove
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Grove Ferry Picnic Area?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
How far is Grove from London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London.
What if the weather’s bad?
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.
Can you cater a party at a village hall?
Often, yes. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can you supply plates?
Ask us when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Can you park at my house?
That depends on the way in and the ground. Tell us about gates, slopes and soft lawns, and we’ll check it works.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Grove.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
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.
How the day works
When we arrive, 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. At midsummer, it’s light in Grove until about 9:15pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
