For a public event, it helps to tell people that the nearest station is Appledore (Kent) station, about 4.5 miles north-west. Organisers of a summer fête for a church such as Church of St Clement could add tacos and burritos alongside the bric-a-brac.

Do you come to school fairs around Old Romney?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Do you come out to small places like Old Romney?
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.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Do you have vegan options?
We do. There are vegan tacos and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors.
Before you choose a spot

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
