Should I do it myself?
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.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Wedding Mexican catering in Herne Common, served fresh

FAQs for Herne Common
Which station should guests use for Herne Common?
Guests can use Herne Bay station, about 1.4 miles north of Herne Common.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Martin?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you work with our venue?
Yes, it makes life easier. Put us in touch and we’ll agree the details.
Can you handle dietary needs at our wedding?
Diets are planned in advance and kept separate. Ask any guests with severe allergies to speak to us first.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.

How it compares
Many food trucks only cover evening food. We can do the main meal as well, so one caterer covers the day. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

It helps to add rail details to the invitations, as the nearest station is Herne Bay station, about 1.4 miles north. The sea is within about 3 miles, close enough for a coastal wedding. Coastal wind, sand and seafront access all need planning for a truck or trailer.

- Connect us with your coordinator
- Check your date with us early
- Let us know about severe allergies in writing
We keep in touch with your venue coordinator on the day, so you don’t have to.

What we need at the venue
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Space for guests to queue
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
What we offer
- Nachos to share
- Burritos and bowls
- Margarita bar
- Guacamole and salsas
- Taco bar wedding breakfast
- Evening tacos
Step by step
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. A winter wedding in Herne Common gets dark early, at about 3:50pm in December, so evening guests will be queuing in the dark. Festoon lights by the truck help guests see the menu.
- First, we check availability for your date.
- You choose the fillings, sides and extras.
- We confirm the plan with your venue.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- We serve, then pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
