About our Mexican street food in Paddock
We can trade to the public or cook for crew, volunteers and hospitality areas. At community days and feeding crew and volunteers, we can serve loaded nachos, vegan tacos and burrito bowls and more.
A fête near Paddock might be on a field with no mains power; let us know and we will confirm the arrangements. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Share vehicle access times with traders
- Plan seating near the food area

What Mexican street food costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many staff you need
- Whether you need disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A picture of where we’d park
- The venue or postcode
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we will make suggestions. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.
Paddock: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Paddock?
Charing station, about 3 miles west of the centre.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Paddock?
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.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you cater in Paddock?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Paddock and across Kent. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.

Paddock is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover. We cater right across the region, from Paddock to Canterbury (about 11 miles away).
A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Cosmas and St Damian might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. For a public event, it helps to tell people that Charing station is about 3 miles away. Events in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 5 miles of Paddock, often have rules about vehicles, ground and waste; we will follow the site’s requirements.

Planning the serving area
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Spacing from tents and other structures
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
How it works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. By late September, it’s dark in Paddock at around 7:00pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates 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 cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Give us a contact for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
How to get a price
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, tell us about it on our contact page.
