Event catering near Tankerton
Tankerton is about 1 mile north-east of Whitstable, in Kent. For Mexican street food in Tankerton, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Tankerton. Tankerton is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring Mexican street food. We cater right across the region, from Tankerton to Canterbury (6 miles away).
Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as St Mary's Catholic Primary School, a busy corner. For a public event, it helps to tell people that Whitstable station is about 0.7 miles away. The coast is within about a mile of Tankerton, so for seaside events we plan a sheltered pitch, on firm ground rather than sand.
Here we cover the CT5 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. Local streets include Gann Road, Clare Road and Athol Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Close by, we cover events in Swalecliffe (1 mile east), Chestfield (1 mile south-east), Whitstable (1 mile south-west), Radfall (2 miles south-east) and West End (2 miles south-east). Further out, we also cater in Canterbury (6 miles south), Margate (15 miles east), Sittingbourne (14 miles west), Faversham (8 miles south-west), Herne Bay (4 miles east) and Minster (11 miles west).
A little further out are Whitstable and Tankerton Hospital (within half a mile south-east) and Tankerton Castle (0.5 miles west). Green spaces nearby include West Blean and Thornden Woods.

Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
How it compares
One-dish stalls leave some visitors out. Tacos, burritos, bowls and nachos give choice. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.

How it works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps. By late September, it is dark in Tankerton at around 7:00pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Share the running order, including any speeches
