Mexican street food in Hackington, from our truck or trailer
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders come out fast from the hatch. We serve loaded nachos, burritos and quesadillas, and it suits crew and volunteer catering and sports club events.
A fête near Hackington might be on a field with no mains power; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Your questions about Mexican street food in Hackington
Could you come to a seaside event near Hackington?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots normally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Which station is closest to Hackington?
Guests can use Canterbury West station, about 1.4 miles south of Hackington.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can vegans eat at your stall?
Yes, always. We serve vegan fillings such as black beans or spiced mushrooms.
What documents can you send?
Share your trader requirements and we will respond.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you give allergen information?
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 clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.

Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
For event organisers in Hackington
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Comparing your options
If you want a trader that adds atmosphere, tacos and burritos deliver. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
