Wedding Mexican catering in Grove, from our truck or trailer
Our food truck or trailer suits marquee, barn and garden weddings, as long as we can drive in safely and park on level ground. Popular choices include a taco bar for the wedding breakfast, tacos and quesadillas, and it suits sharing-style wedding meals and barn and farm weddings.
A wedding in a small place like Grove often means a field, a barn or a family garden. That’s where a food truck comes into its own: no kitchen, just firm ground and access. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Step by step
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. In Grove, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:00pm, so evening tacos are typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:50pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- Together we choose a taco bar, evening food or both, and we send a quote.
- Timings and where the truck or trailer will stand are agreed with your venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve on cue, around speeches and photos.
- We pack down after service and leave our area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Planning a taco wedding in Grove
Grove is about 5 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. Tell us where your wedding in Grove will be, and we will plan the journey and set-up before the day. We cater in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Grove to Canterbury (6 miles away).
Group shots in Grove Ferry Picnic Area could be lovely, though some parks ask for notice or a permit, so look into it. Say your vows at a church like Church of St Mildred, then head to a garden, barn or marquee where the truck or trailer is waiting. We can set up while the photos are taken. The sea is within about 6 miles, close enough for a coastal wedding. Coastal wind, sand and seafront access all need planning for a truck or trailer.

Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
- Space for guests to queue
- A serving point within easy walk of the reception
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Send us the running order and speech times
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
- Ask about diets and allergies with your RSVPs
- Ask whether your venue allows food trucks
Allergen information is available for every dish, and every dish is labelled at the serving point.
A wider choice of salsas and toppings fills out the taco bar.
About the menu
Loaded nachos
Crisp chips piled with toppings.
Quesadillas

FAQs for Grove
Could you serve in Grove Ferry Picnic Area?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Is Grove close to London?
About 58 miles from central London.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
