About our Mexican street food in Chislet
Crew and volunteer meals are timed to suit you, so your team eats well on a long day. On the menu are vegan tacos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for festivals and country shows.
For a village fête or field event near Chislet, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Chislet events: pitches and permissions
Chislet is about 3 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. For an event in Chislet, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. Chislet is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 6 miles away.
Events in parks such as Grove Ferry Picnic Area need permission from the council or landowner, and we’ll send any documents they ask for from us.

FAQs for Chislet
Could you serve in Grove Ferry Picnic Area?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you cater in villages like Chislet?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
What does Mexican street food cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Confirm power and water with traders
- Schedule crew meals
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
Allergen details are on hand for every dish, and the menu shows vegan and gluten-free options.
Alcohol-free aguas frescas.
Planners, venues and businesses
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
What we need at the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Flat, firm ground
- Spacing from tents and other structures
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
What happens on the day
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. Summer events in Chislet have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- 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.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
