Taco bar hire near Bean
Taco bar hire in Bean, from our food truck or trailer
We bring taco bars to events in and around Bean: marquees, barns, gardens, halls and workplaces. It works well for team lunches and summer garden parties, with guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas.
Somewhere as small as Bean, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Working with your venue
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.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Taco bar hire or something else?
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, and power and water are confirmed with each booking. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book with us
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Every guest catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included
- Service planned around your numbers

Taco bar hire in Bean: local tips
Bean is about 3 miles west of Northfleet, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Bean or on the outskirts, taco bar hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cater in all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for Maidstone, about 15 miles away.
Parks such as Beacon Wood Country Park generally need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. The B255 run on or near Bean, which makes the journey with the taco bar an easy one. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 8 miles of Bean, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go.
This part of Kent takes in DA2, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. We can cater an event on streets such as High Street, Drudgeon Way and Foxwood Road.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
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.

Questions from Bean
Do you come out to small places like Bean?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
How the day works
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. In Bean, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
