Your questions about Mexican street food in Petham
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Petham?
Yes, if the school is happy and there’s access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Provide seating near the food
