Questions from Knave's Ash
Do you come out to small places like Knave's Ash?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Could you come to a seaside event near Knave's Ash?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Will there be long queues?
We plan stock and service around your expected numbers.
Do you cater in Knave's Ash?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Knave's Ash is within our area and the rest of Kent. To check your date, tell us about it on our contact page.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you feed our volunteers?
Yes, at set times to suit your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Mexican street food for your event in Knave's Ash
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. People follow the smell of warm tortillas, and orders come out fast from the hatch. It suits outdoor screenings and street food and farmers’ markets, with vegan tacos, quesadillas and burritos.
Rural events near Knave's Ash can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
How we price Mexican street food
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- Timings and hours
- How many guests we’re serving
- What the venue already provides
- Parking and the route in
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Roughly how many adults and children
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Where the event is
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?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Provide seating near the food
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Give traders a single information pack
- Confirm power and water with traders
We clear the pitch and leave it as we found it.

How it works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down.
