Running an event in Herne
Herne is about 1 mile south of Herne Bay, in Kent. Events in Herne are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. Herne is one of 922 places in Kent we cover.
Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Herne Church of England Infant School, a busy corner. A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Martin might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. Within about 2 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
Anywhere in CT6, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Whether your event is on St Martin's View, Ridley Close and Herne Street or anywhere nearby, we’ll plan where to park and serve. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Hunters Forstal (1 mile north-east), Eddington (1 mile north-west), Herne Common (1 mile south-west), Bullockstone (1 mile west) and Broomfield (1 mile north-east). Larger places within reach include Canterbury (5 miles south-west), Margate (11 miles east), Ramsgate (12 miles east), Broadstairs (13 miles east), Whitstable (4 miles west) and Deal (15 miles south-east).
Other landmarks nearby include Whitstable and Tankerton Hospital (3.7 miles west) and Tankerton Castle (4.4 miles west). The countryside around Herne includes West Blean and Thornden Woods.
- Local schools include Herne Bay High School (1.2 miles north-west)

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
