Event catering near Coombe
Coombe is about 6 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. From the centre of Coombe to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Coombe is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring Mexican street food. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 9 miles away.
A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Nicholas might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. Visitors arriving by train will find that Sandwich station is about 2.1 miles away. Within about 6 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
Mexican street food in CT3 and CT13 is planned around your venue and access and timings. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Coombe Lane, Saunders Lane and Langdon Avenue or the roads around them. We also serve at events in Flemings (1 mile south-west), Ash (1 mile north-west), Weddington (1 mile north), Guilton (1 mile west) and Hammill Park (1 mile south).

Before you choose a spot
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- The event’s site rules and timings
- A level pitch on firm ground
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. A December market in Coombe loses the light at about 3:50pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
