How it compares
Buffet trays can go cold and tired. We keep the fillings hot and refill the dishes through service. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

About our taco bar hire in Coldred
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. For milestone birthdays and wedding evening food, we can serve guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and burrito bowls.
In a small place like Coldred, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Coldred: your questions answered
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Pancras?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater at coastal events near Coldred?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
How does taco bar hire work?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Occasions we cater for in Coldred
Guests on special diets don’t need a separate meal, since corn tortillas and vegan fillings sit with everything else.
These are some of the occasions we serve around Coldred:
- Christenings and family parties
- Working lunches
