Taco bar hire near Dunkirk
About our taco bar hire in Dunkirk
The bar can stand beside our food truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck can’t get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. It suits leaving dos and staff parties, with guacamole, pickled onions and toppings and fresh salsas.
For a rural spot like Dunkirk, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we will confirm power and water with you. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
How it works
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Winter evenings in Dunkirk close in by about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

- Together we choose what goes on the bar.

FAQs for Dunkirk
Can you serve near the sea around Dunkirk?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Dunkirk?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. Tell us about the parking, the doors and the space for the station.
How much is a taco bar?
Every taco bar is quoted for individually, based on numbers, fillings, the venue and timings. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.
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. Tell us how many children are coming.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
It depends on the event and the timings. As a guide, our bookings generally fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.

Taco bar hire in Dunkirk: local tips
Dunkirk is about 4 miles south-east of Faversham, in Kent. From the centre of Dunkirk to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cater in 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
If you are celebrating after a service at a church like Christ Church, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. Thinking of a taco bar in Mount Ephraim Gardens? Catering in a public park normally needs the landowner’s permission, so check first. With the Kent Downs National Landscape about 8 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Dunkirk. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload. Dunkirk is within about 6 miles of the sea, so for a seaside taco bar we plan around the wind. A sheltered spot for the station helps, and seafront sites generally need permission.
Anywhere in ME13, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include London Road and Courtenay Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Close by, we cover events in Boughton under Blean (1 mile west), Winterbourne (1 mile south-west), Hickmans Green (1 mile west), Oversland (1 mile south-west) and South Street (2 miles south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Ashford (12 miles south-west), Canterbury (5 miles east), Sittingbourne (11 miles west), Whitstable (5 miles north-east), Faversham (4 miles north-west) and Herne Bay (9 miles north-east).
Nearby you will also find Chilham Castle (3.5 miles south) and Eastbridge Hospital of St Thomas the Martyr (4.4 miles east). The countryside around Dunkirk includes Blean Woods RSPB Reserve.
- Nearby, you’ll find The Red Lion pub (0.5 miles east)
Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
