Wedding Mexican catering for Hoo events
Hoo: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Hoo?
The closest is Minster station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Do you cater at coastal events near Hoo?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots normally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we will reply with a quote.
Can you cater for all our guests’ diets?
We plan carefully and keep options separate. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the wedding.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How our wedding Mexican catering works in Hoo
We can do the wedding breakfast, evening food, or the two together. A taco bar for the meal and loaded nachos or tacos for the evening works well. It works well for weddings in a marquee or garden and engagement parties at home, with tacos, burrito bowls and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast.
There is something special about a country wedding near Hoo, and a food truck by the barn or marquee adds to it. Plan for access, soft ground and wet-weather cover for guests. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
The process
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. December weddings in Hoo lose the light by about 3:50pm, so the evening food will be served after 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 access and the serving spot with your coordinator.
- Food is served from the taco bar or the hatch.
- After serving, we clear away.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Weddings in Hoo: venues, ceremonies and travel
Hoo is about 5 miles south-west of Margate, in Kent. Tell us where your wedding in Hoo will be, and we will plan the journey and set-up before the day. We serve in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Hoo to Canterbury (about 10 miles away).
Say your vows at a church like Church of Saint Mary the Virgin, then head to a garden, barn or marquee where the truck or trailer is waiting. We can set up while the photos are taken. Historic houses near Hoo include Quex Park (2.4 miles north-east). If your reception is at a historic house or estate, ask early about its rules on outside caterers and vehicles. Couples near the coast, within about 6 miles of Hoo, 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.
Anywhere in CT12, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Local streets include Monkton Road, Hoo Farm Way and Sheriffs Court Lane; for a wedding at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Flag any coeliac guests or serious allergies
- Enquire early for summer Saturdays
- Ask whether your venue allows food trucks
Evening food is served at the agreed time, such as after the cake is cut.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or staff, and we will set it out in the quote.
Where the truck can go in Hoo
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- A route in that’s wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- 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 booking.
