Hiring our taco truck near Bekesbourne
Bekesbourne is about 3 miles south-east of Canterbury, in Kent. We cater events at gardens, halls and venues around Bekesbourne and the surrounding area. We serve in 922 places across Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Peter, the truck would serve at the reception venue rather than at the church. Central London is about 56 miles from Bekesbourne, close enough for a London team’s away day. With the Kent Downs National Landscape within about 8 miles, a rural setting for your private or work event is within reach. Firm ground and a clear way in matter most for the truck or trailer.

How it works
Here’s how the day typically runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Late-September events in Bekesbourne see sunset at about 7:00pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:45pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- When everyone is fed, we clear our area.
