Wedding Mexican catering for Tankerton events
Wedding Mexican catering in Tankerton, from our truck or trailer
A food truck or trailer suits barns, marquees, gardens and venues with hardstanding, provided there’s safe access and level, firm ground. For big weddings with every diet and rustic barn weddings, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, fresh guacamole and salsas and a taco bar for the wedding breakfast for your guests.
Weddings in a place like Tankerton often feel personal: a local church, then a marquee in a garden or field. A food truck by the marquee suits that kind of day. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Should I do it myself?
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.
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.
Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
How it compares
If you are weighing up a taco bar against a traditional menu, think about your venue, your guests’ diets and the feel of 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.

Common questions in Tankerton
How far is Tankerton from London?
It’s about 50 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you serve near the sea around Tankerton?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Will you talk to our venue?
Yes, it makes life easier. Introduce us and we’ll sort the details.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Can you cater the whole day?
Yes. We can do a taco bar for the main meal and tacos or nachos for the evening.
What access do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
