About our Mexican street food in Barrowhill
One Mexican trader covers several diets: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That helps organisers balance the line-up. At sports clubs and race days and community events and open days, we can serve loaded nachos, tacos and burritos for your guests.
A fête near Barrowhill might be on a field with no mains power; tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
Event catering near Barrowhill

We cover 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater right across the region, from Barrowhill to Canterbury (about 13 miles away).
Organisers of a summer fête for a church such as Church of St Mary could add tacos and burritos alongside the bric-a-brac.

What else we do in Barrowhill
Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Serving staff
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Guest numbers
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- The date and time of the event
- The address or venue name
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Expected numbers
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Provide seating near the food
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Book crew catering in advance
We set up at the agreed time, following your trader pack.
A vegan filling on every menu.
Comparing your options
Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot meal keeps crew happy. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What you get with us
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch

About the menu
Vegan tacos
A real choice for vegans.
Quesadillas
A good choice for families.
How it works
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Late-September events in Barrowhill see sunset at about 7:00pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
