Mexican street food for Lympne events
Mexican street food for your event in Lympne
One Mexican trader covers several diets: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That makes your food line-up easier. It works well for fundraisers and fêtes and outdoor screenings, with vegan tacos, tacos and quesadillas.
Near Lympne, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December market in Lympne loses the light at about 3:50pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:15pm.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- You get our stall menu, what we need at the pitch and the paperwork you request.
- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Your questions about Mexican street food in Lympne
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you serve near the sea around Lympne?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots typically need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
How is the food prepared?
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?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. Vegan fillings such as spiced mushrooms or black beans are on the menu.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
