About our Mexican street food in Chilmington Green
One Mexican trader covers several diets: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That makes your food line-up easier. For crew and volunteer catering and school fairs and fundraisers, we’ll put together a menu of vegan tacos, loaded nachos and quesadillas for your guests.
At a field event near Chilmington Green, power and water may be limited; let us know and we’ll confirm the arrangements. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Some traders struggle with vegan and gluten-free visitors. Our menu includes vegan and gluten-free options. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.

Common questions in Chilmington Green
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Can you trade at a school fair in Chilmington Green?
Yes, if the school is happy and there’s access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Can you bring margaritas?
It depends on the event’s licence. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you need water?
Send pitch details and we’ll confirm, including power and water.
What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but a few things matter:
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Step by step
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. A December market in Chilmington Green loses the light at about 3:50pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:15pm.
- We check your dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We trade, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
