Mexican party catering in Hartley, served fresh
Tacos are relaxed party food: easy to eat with one hand, so guests can keep chatting and there’s no need for a seating plan. On the menu are loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole and salsas, which works well for family get-togethers and retirement celebrations.
Parties around Hartley are often relaxed, garden-and-gazebo affairs. A taco truck on the drive fits right in, with power and water agreed beforehand. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.

Parties in Hartley: gardens, venues and local tips
Hartley is about 4 miles south-west of Northfleet, in Kent. For a party in Hartley, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Hartley. Hartley is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we can bring Mexican party catering. We cater right across the region, from Hartley to London (about 19 miles away).
Thinking of a party in Rectory Meadow? A food truck in a public park normally needs permission from the landowner, so check first. Once the service at a church like Church of Saint Mary is over, the party can move somewhere with space for the truck and a queue. For a party in the countryside, the Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 7 miles. Rural gardens and fields work well for a truck, given firm ground and a way in.
This part of Kent takes in DA3, and we can cater your party anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Whether your party is on Church Road, Dickens Close and Stack Lane or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve.

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

FAQs for Hartley
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of Saint Mary?
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.
How far is Hartley from London?
About 19 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
Do you cater in Hartley?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Hartley and across Kent. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Can you cater for children?
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.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
