At a fête or field event near How Green, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. Summer events in How Green have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

Running an event in How Green
How Green is about 7 miles south-west of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Wherever your event is in the TN8 area, we can serve your guests. How Green is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring Mexican street food. We cater right across the region, from How Green to London (23 miles away).
Rail travel is an option for visitors, as Hever station is about 1.3 miles away. If you’re organising a summer fair or fundraiser for a school such as Hever Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Organisers near the High Weald National Landscape, within about 8 miles of How Green, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets.
This part of Kent takes in TN8, so your event can be anywhere in it. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Hever Road and How Green Lane or the roads around them. If your venue is just outside How Green, we also cover Hever (1 mile south), Newtown (2 miles south), Markbeech (2 miles south), Chiddingstone Causeway (3 miles east) and Chiddingstone Hoath (3 miles south-east). Further out, we also cater in Sevenoaks (7 miles north-east), Royal Tunbridge Wells (8 miles south-east), Tonbridge (7 miles east), Swanley (14 miles north), Kings Hill (14 miles east) and Paddock Wood (12 miles east).
Other landmarks nearby include Tandridge Priory (5.4 miles north-west) and Hever Castle (0.7 miles south).
- Local pubs include The Wheatsheaf Public House (0.8 miles east)
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:

- Schedule crew meals
