Mexican street food in Woodlands
How our Mexican street food works in Woodlands
Organisers can book us as a public stall or to feed crew, volunteers and hospitality areas. At outdoor screenings and open days and community events, we can serve burrito bowls, tacos and quesadillas and more.
At a field event near Woodlands, power and water may be limited; let us know and we’ll confirm the arrangements. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Event catering near Woodlands
Woodlands is about 4 miles north-east of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Woodlands or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Woodlands is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we can bring Mexican street food. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Woodlands to London (about 19 miles away).
Organisers looking at Kemsing Down as a site should start with the landowner, who sets the rules for traders and vehicles. Running a fête for a church like Church of Saint Mary the Virgin? A Mexican street-food truck draws people in. Shows and fairs in the Kent Downs National Landscape, about 3 miles from Woodlands at most, sometimes have rules on where traders can drive. Send us the site plan and we’ll plan around it.
We serve at events all over TN15. Close by, we cover events in Cotman's Ash (1 mile south-west), Knatts Valley (1 mile north), Romney Street (1 mile north-west), East Hill (1 mile north) and Heaverham (1 mile south). Within a short drive, we also cover Maidstone (13 miles east), Dartford (8 miles north), Sevenoaks (4 miles south-west), Royal Tunbridge Wells (13 miles south), Gravesend (9 miles north-east) and Tonbridge (9 miles south).
A little further out are Sevenoaks Hospital (3.3 miles south-west) and Kemsing Castle Bank (1.4 miles south-west).
- Pubs nearby include The Rising Sun pub (0.5 miles south-west)
What Mexican street food costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Whether you need disposables
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Parking and the route in
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- How we drive in and where we can park
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- What power and water the site has

Woodlands questions
Will you travel to a small place like Woodlands?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
How far is Woodlands from London?
It’s about 19 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
Can you handle a lunchtime rush?
With fillings ready to go, service is quick.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you run a bar at festivals?
That depends on licensing. Let us know how alcohol is licensed at your event, and we’ll go from there.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
For event organisers in Woodlands
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Clear information on power, water and waste
- Vehicle access before and after the event
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
The process
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. Christmas markets in Woodlands trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Give us your final numbers and diets

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
