Mexican street food in Swanley Village, served fresh
A Mexican food truck pulls a crowd at any outdoor event. People follow the smell of warm tortillas, and orders come out fast from the hatch. We serve vegan tacos, burritos and loaded nachos, which works well for open days and community events and village fêtes and summer fairs.
Near Swanley Village, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food truck is a big help. You’ll know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Ensure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Send traders one clear trader pack
Allergen information is available at the hatch, and the menu shows vegan and gluten-free options.
Margaritas and Mexican beer, subject to the event’s licence.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
