A fête near Chartham might be on a field with no mains power; let us know and we will confirm the arrangements. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
What happens on the day
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. By late September, it is dark in Chartham at around 7:00pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.

- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.

Running an event in Chartham
Chartham is about 3 miles south-west of Canterbury, in Kent. From the centre of Chartham to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Chartham is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring Mexican street food.
Rail travel is an option for visitors, as Chartham station is in Chartham itself. If you are organising a summer fair or fundraiser for a school such as Chartham Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Organisers near the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Chartham, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets.
This part of Kent takes in CT4, so your event can be anywhere in it. Streets in the area include Station Road, River Court and The Green, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. We also serve at events in Shalmsford Street (1 mile south), Mystole (1 mile south-west), Chartham Hatch (1 mile north), Garlinge Green (2 miles south) and Thanington (2 miles north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Ashford (10 miles south-west), Canterbury (3 miles north-east), Dover (15 miles south-east), Sittingbourne (14 miles north-west), Folkestone (14 miles south-east) and Whitstable (7 miles north).
Other landmarks nearby include Chilham Castle (2.7 miles west) and Whitefriars Shopping Centre (3.1 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Blean Woods RSPB Reserve.
- Pubs nearby include The Artichoke Inn (less than half a mile south-east)
How it compares
Burger stalls are common. Tacos add something different. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.

Working with your venue
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
What affects the price in Chartham
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Parking and the route in
- Serving staff
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Whether you need disposables
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What we need to know
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Where the event is
- Your date and when you want service to start
- What you’d like on the menu
- How we drive in and where we can park
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
