What happens on the day
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. Summer events in Whitfield have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day

About our Mexican street food in Whitfield
Tacos, burritos and bowls are easy to eat on the move. For sports clubs and race days and feeding crew and volunteers, we will put together a menu of burritos, tacos and burrito bowls.
Summer fairs around Whitfield are often run by volunteers, so it helps to agree the pitch, power and water early. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Share power and water details early
- Ask about peak-time capacity
We set up at the agreed time, following your trader pack.
Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Fairs, fêtes and events in Whitfield
Whitfield is about 1 mile north of Dover, in Kent. We serve at events in gardens, halls and venues around Whitfield and nearby villages. We cover all 922 towns and villages across Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 12 miles away.
A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Peter might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. A school such as Whitfield Aspen School running a summer fair could book a taco truck. Shows and fairs in the Kent Downs National Landscape, about 8 miles from Whitfield at most, sometimes have rules on where traders can drive. Send us the site plan and we’ll plan around it. Within about 3 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
Anywhere in CT16, we can bring Mexican street food to you. We can cater an event on streets such as Khartoum Square, Wheatsheaf Square and Alison Crescent or the roads around them. We also serve at events in Temple Ewell (1 mile south-west), River (1 mile south-west), Kearsney (1 mile south-west), Dover (1 mile south) and Lydden (2 miles west). Larger places within reach include Canterbury (12 miles north-west), Folkestone (8 miles south-west), Ramsgate (13 miles north), Broadstairs (15 miles north-east), Deal (6 miles north-east) and Hythe (11 miles south-west).

- Schools near Whitfield include St Edmund's Catholic School (1.7 miles south)
Is Mexican street food right for your event?
For crew catering, sandwiches are easy but uninspiring. A hot burrito or taco bowl keeps crew going. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
