Mexican street food in Hacklinge, served fresh
The menu is agreed with organisers, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, plus a vegan option such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. On the menu are burritos, burrito bowls and vegan tacos, and it suits hospitality and crew areas and county and country shows.
Rural events near Hacklinge can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
What we need at the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Trader information and site rules
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Hacklinge questions
Is it possible to have you in Betteshanger Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
What’s the nearest station to Hacklinge for guests?
The closest is Sandwich station, roughly 2 miles away.
What paperwork do you provide?
Share your trader requirements and we will respond.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you need water?
We will confirm our needs once we know the pitch details.
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.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

Event catering near Hacklinge
Hacklinge is about 2 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Hacklinge or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cover 922 places in Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Hacklinge to Canterbury (about 12 miles away).
If your event is in Betteshanger Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission; we will supply what they need from us. Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Worth Primary School, a busy corner. Within about 3 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
Anywhere in CT14, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Homemead Lane and Hacklinge Hill. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Finglesham (1 mile south-west), Marley (1 mile south-west), Worth (1 mile north-west), Ham (1 mile west) and Felderland (1 mile north-west). Further out, we also cater in Canterbury (12 miles west), Margate (10 miles north), Dover (8 miles south), Folkestone (14 miles south-west), Ramsgate (7 miles north) and Broadstairs (9 miles north).
