About our taco bar hire in Crayford
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. For working lunches and birthday celebrations, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
In a smaller place like Crayford, a taco bar in your garden or a local hall keeps things simple. Our staff set up the station and guests build their own tacos. Tell us where we can park and unload. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Planning a taco bar in Crayford
Crayford is about 2 miles west of Dartford, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Crayford 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. Crayford is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover. We cater right across the region, from Crayford to London (about 12 miles away).
No room for the truck at home? A hall or club near Crayford with parking close by could host the taco bar. Historic houses near Crayford include Hall Place and Gardens (0.9 miles west) and Red House (2.2 miles west). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our truck or trailer parks further off.
Wherever your event is in DA1, DA5 and DA7, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. We can cater an event on streets such as Swan Lane, Dale Road and Ross Road. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Bowmans (1 mile south), Barnes Cray (1 mile north-east), Barnehurst (1 mile north-west), Coldblow (1 mile south-west) and Wilmington (1 mile south). We also cater in nearby towns such as Sevenoaks (12 miles south), Gravesend (9 miles east), Northfleet (7 miles east), Swanley (4 miles south), Swanscombe (5 miles east) and Windmill Hill (8 miles east).

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Where the truck can go in Crayford
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work. The main points are:
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- A clear area in front of the station
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

For event organisers in Crayford
Organising a club, school or community event in Crayford? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
The process
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. In Crayford, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
How to prepare
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
