FAQs for Boyden Gate
Do you cater in villages like Boyden Gate?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Can you serve drinks at our wedding?
Yes, our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices too. Licensing is checked with you and the venue.
Do you come to Boyden Gate?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Boyden Gate and across Kent. Send us your date to check availability.
Is a taco bar smart enough for a wedding?
Served well, it feels generous and special.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.

Planning a taco wedding in Boyden Gate
Boyden Gate is about 3 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. Across the CT3 area, we will come to your venue or site, as long as there is access. We serve in 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater right across the region, from Boyden Gate to Canterbury (about 7 miles away).
Couples who choose a church such as Church of St Mary the Virgin for the ceremony often pick a reception spot a short drive away. If you are hoping for photos in Grove Ferry Picnic Area, check whether the park needs permission for photography or gatherings. Couples near the coast, within about 4 miles of Boyden Gate, sometimes want a beach feel. We need firm ground for the truck or trailer, so a clifftop lawn or venue car park may suit better than the sand.
Here we cover the CT3 postcode area. Whether your wedding is on Forge Lane and Church Lane or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. Nearby, we also cater weddings in Chislet (1 mile south), Highstead (1 mile north-west), Chitty (1 mile south-east), Hollow Street (1 mile south) and Old Tree (1 mile south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Canterbury (7 miles south-west), Margate (9 miles east), Dover (15 miles south), Ramsgate (10 miles east), Broadstairs (10 miles east) and Whitstable (7 miles west).
Other landmarks nearby include St Martins Hospital (6 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include West Blean and Thornden Woods.
- Local pubs include Hog & Donkey pub (0.8 miles north)
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What else we do in Boyden Gate
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- A serving spot close to the marquee or reception area
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
Popular choices
- Guacamole and salsas
- Taco bar wedding breakfast
- Evening tacos
- Margarita bar
- Burritos and bowls
- Nachos to share
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
- Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
- Count day and evening guests separately
- Think about a covered space for wet weather
We have allergen details for every dish, and every dish is labelled.
Quesadillas go down well with children at the wedding breakfast.
How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t normally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. A winter wedding in Boyden Gate gets dark early, at about 3:50pm in December, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Ask your venue what outdoor lighting it has near where we will park.
- You send us your wedding date, venue, numbers and how you see the day.
- You get a suggested wedding menu and a quote to match.
- Timings and where the truck or trailer will stand are agreed with your venue.
- On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Tell us when you want service to start
Getting a price
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
