Mexican party catering in Tovil, from our food truck or trailer
Mexican street food suits birthdays, garden parties and all kinds of celebrations. The truck or trailer is a focal point, and the food comes out hot. Popular choices include guacamole and salsas, loaded nachos and tacos, which works well for new-home celebrations and graduation celebrations.
Around Tovil, a garden and a gazebo is often all you need. 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.
Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Plan where rubbish goes
- Measure your gate or driveway
- Put severe allergies to us in writing
- Plan somewhere for guests to sit and eat
After service, we pack away, so the party carries on.
Burrito bowls for guests who skip tortillas.
What Mexican party catering costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

The process
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. For a winter party in Tovil, it’s dark by about 3:50pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- You tell us the date, the address, guest numbers and any diets.
- You get a sample menu and a quote for your party.
- We check the space and access for the truck or trailer.
- On the day, we arrive, set up and start serving at the agreed time.
- We pack down after service so the party can carry on.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

Questions from Tovil
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Which station is closest to Tovil?
The closest is Maidstone West station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Can you do a kids’ option?
Of course. Children normally enjoy quesadillas and simple tacos, and salsas go on the side. Include children in your numbers.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Space for guests to queue
- A picture of the drive or garden helps us check the space
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
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.
