How our wedding Mexican catering works in Mersham
Our truck or trailer suits marquee, barn and garden weddings, as long as we can drive in safely and park on level ground. On the menu are quesadillas, burrito bowls and loaded nachos, which works well for receptions after an intimate ceremony and late-evening wedding food.
Near Mersham, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. 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. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
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. Read our guide to taco bars.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Step by step
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. In Mersham, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:00pm, so evening tacos are typically served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:50pm.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for 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.
- We pack down after service and leave our area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Mersham weddings: local tips
Mersham is about 3 miles south-east of Ashford, in Kent. Give us the address of your wedding in Mersham, and we will plan the journey and set-up. Mersham is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Mersham to Canterbury (about 13 miles away).
Around Mersham, historic houses include Westenhanger Castle (4.7 miles east). 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. With a ceremony at a church such as Church of St John the Baptist, the simplest plan is a reception close by, so guests aren’t travelling far before they eat. We can set up while the photos are taken. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 5 miles of Mersham, with rural settings that could suit a wedding. Ask your venue about vehicle access and ground conditions for a truck or trailer.
Here we cover the TN25 postcode area, and we can cater your wedding anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. That could mean a wedding at a home with a drive on Church Road, The Street and Church Close. If your venue is just outside Mersham, we also cover Sevington (1 mile north-west), South Stour (1 mile south-west), Ridgeway (1 mile east), Hinxhill Park (2 miles north) and Smeeth (2 miles east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Ashford (3 miles north-west), Canterbury (13 miles north-east), Folkestone (11 miles east), Faversham (14 miles north), Hythe (7 miles south-east) and Davington (14 miles north).
Other landmarks nearby include Ashford Designer Outlet (2.6 miles north-west) and William Harvey Hospital (1.7 miles north-west). Not far away are Hatch Park.
- Pubs nearby include The Farriers Arms (less than half a mile south-west)
Is wedding Mexican catering right for your wedding?
Hog roasts are popular but tricky for mixed diets. Separate fillings and toppings cover every diet. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Why us?
- Menus for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both

Questions from Mersham
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you cater in villages like Mersham?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
What if our speeches run late?
It happens at most weddings. Service starts when your running order says, even if that moves.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us 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.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Can you cater the whole day?
We can cater as much or as little of the day as you like. Share your plans and we’ll suggest a menu.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Organising for someone else?
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Include suppliers who need feeding
- Flag any coeliac guests or serious allergies
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Send us the running order and speech times
For a taco bar, fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests can be called up by table.
Add our drinks bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you and your venue.
