About our Mexican street food in Culmers
Crew and volunteer meals are timed to suit you, keeping your team going. It suits hospitality and crew areas and seasonal and night markets, with burritos, tacos and vegan tacos.
At a fête or field event near Culmers, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Culmers questions
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Culmers?
Yes, with the school’s permission and a pitch the truck or trailer can reach. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Do you cater at coastal events near Culmers?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How quickly can you serve?
Fillings are cooked ahead and kept hot, so orders are assembled quickly.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Send us the details, and we will confirm availability and requirements.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

Space, access and the venue
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Street food for events around Culmers

Culmers is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring Mexican street food. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 7 miles away.
A market or festival in Mount Ephraim Gardens would be licensed by whoever manages the park, and we’ll provide our part of the paperwork. Organisers of a summer fête for a church such as Church of All Saints could add tacos and burritos alongside the bric-a-brac. Seafront festivals and markets, with the coast within about 5 miles of Culmers, need the organiser’s permission for traders. Send us the pitch details and we’ll check access.

Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. With fillings prepared ahead, service is fast. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Guest numbers
- Serving staff
- Distance and access to the venue
- The length of service
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- What power and water the site has
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- The date and rough timings
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send you a clear quote.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
How the day works
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. For an evening event in Culmers, sunset is about 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June; beyond that, ask the organiser how the site will be lit.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Preparing for the day

- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
Getting a price
