Taco bar hire in Bockhanger, served fresh
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. For team socials and leaving dos, we can serve burrito bowls, fresh salsas and a build-your-own taco bar.
A place like Bockhanger may have a hall or a club nearby if your garden is small; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
What taco bar hire costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The menu you choose
- What the venue already provides
- Distance and access to the venue
- The length of service
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- What power and water the site has
- The venue or postcode
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, use our quote form.
How it works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. Winter evenings in Bockhanger close in by about 3:50pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:15pm.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- We confirm the table spot and where we will unload.
- On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Ask the venue about power and water
Getting a price
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Bockhanger
Is it possible to have you in Ashford Warren and Hoads Wood?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
What does a taco bar cost?
There’s no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we will quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
Is a taco bar suitable for a big group?
Our service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the bar around them.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Is the taco bar staffed?
We run the station ourselves, so your hosts don’t need to. We pack it away afterwards.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Room nearby to park and unload our vehicle
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- A level area for the taco-bar table
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
