Wedding Mexican catering near Chilton
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Chilton
Add our Mexican drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with alcohol-free choices for drivers and children. Licensing is checked with you and the venue first. It works well for evening wedding food and garden and marquee weddings, serving quesadillas, tacos and burrito bowls.
For a smaller place like Chilton, a garden or farm wedding can be ideal. We’ll need level, firm ground and a way to reach it. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.
Organising for someone else?
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
How it compares
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen and a larger team. Our food truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, and the style is more relaxed. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Chilton weddings: local tips
Chilton is about 1 mile south-west of Ramsgate, in Kent. From the centre of Chilton to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Chilton is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring wedding Mexican catering. We cater right across the region, from Chilton to Canterbury (14 miles away).
Around Chilton, historic houses include Quex Park (3.9 miles north-west). A listed house can make a beautiful backdrop, but many have firm rules on vehicles, so raise the food truck with them at your first visit. Some couples near Chilton might slip away to Sandwich and Pegwell Bay for a few photos between the ceremony and the meal. Couples near the coast, within about 2 miles of Chilton, 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.
This part of Kent takes in CT11 and CT12. From Saxon Road, Downs Road and Edith Road or a nearby road, we’ll plan where to park and serve. Main roads around Chilton include the A299, so getting the truck or trailer to your wedding is simple. Close by, we cover weddings in Pegwell (1 mile south), Cliffs End (1 mile west), Newington (1 mile north), Manston (1 mile north-west) and Haine (2 miles north). Further out, we also cater in Canterbury (14 miles west), Margate (3 miles north), Dover (14 miles south), Broadstairs (3 miles north-east), Deal (8 miles south) and Herne Bay (11 miles west).
A little further out are Westwood Cross (1.9 miles north) and Ramsgate Tunnels (0.9 miles east). The countryside around Chilton includes Sandwich and Pegwell Bay.
- Schools near Chilton include Churchill House School With Railed Area (0.9 miles east) and Chatham House Grammar School (1.1 miles east)

Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Add your band and photographer to the numbers
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Tell us about guests with coeliac disease or severe allergies
On the day, we work with your coordinator or toastmaster, so you can enjoy yourselves.
Extra salsas and toppings make the taco bar look generous.
Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. At midsummer, sunset in Chilton is about 9:15pm, so we can time the evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:45pm, and in late September about 7:00pm.

Chilton questions
Is Chilton close to London?
It’s about 65 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is it possible to have you in Sandwich and Pegwell Bay?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Chilton.
Will you talk to our venue?
Yes, it makes life easier. Put us in touch and we’ll agree the details.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Guest numbers
- How long we are needed on site
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Staff for serving and the bar
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
