How our Mexican street food works in Bishopstone
Crew and volunteer meals are timed to suit you, keeping your team going. We serve burrito bowls, burritos and quesadillas, and it is a good fit for agricultural and county shows and open days and community events.
Summer fairs around Bishopstone are often run by volunteers, so we agree pitch, access and power with the organiser in advance. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
If you are 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 saves passing messages back and forth.
How we price Mexican street food
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- The menu you choose
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Bishopstone events: pitches and permissions
Bishopstone is about 2 miles east of Herne Bay, in Kent. Across the CT6 area, we will come to your venue or site. Bishopstone is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Bishopstone to Canterbury (about 8 miles away).
Rail travel is an option for visitors, as Herne Bay station is about 2.4 miles away. Organisers looking at Bishopstone Cliffs as a site should start with the landowner, who sets the rules for traders and vehicles. Within about 2 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
Here we cover the CT6 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. From Manor Road, Puffin Road and Neville Road or anywhere nearby, we’ll plan where to park and serve. For events just outside Bishopstone, we cover Hillborough (1 mile south), Beltinge (1 mile west), Hawthorn (1 mile south), Reculver (1 mile east) and Broomfield (1 mile south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Canterbury (8 miles south-west), Margate (9 miles east), Ramsgate (11 miles east), Broadstairs (11 miles east), Whitstable (6 miles west) and Deal (14 miles south-east).
Other landmarks nearby include Whitstable and Tankerton Hospital (5.3 miles west). Open spaces near Bishopstone include West Blean and Thornden Woods.
Common questions in Bishopstone
Could you come to a seaside event near Bishopstone?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Which station should guests use for Bishopstone?
The closest is Herne Bay station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
Can you send us your trader documents?
Share your trader requirements, and we’ll send what you ask for.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
Yes, timed to your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can vegans eat at your stall?
Yes. Our stall menu includes vegan and gluten-free options.
What does Mexican street food cost?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Late-September events in Bishopstone see sunset at about 7:00pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- You send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- We confirm our menu, our pitch needs and the paperwork your event asks for.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Find out what power and water are available
