Taco bar hire for Ebbsfleet events
Taco bar hire in Ebbsfleet, served fresh
We run the taco bar ourselves: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. Popular choices include pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it is a good fit for leaving dos and wedding evening food.
Near Ebbsfleet, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
A standard buffet often sits out cold. We keep the fillings hot and refill the dishes through service. 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.

Working with your venue
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Put allergies in writing for us
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

The process
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. Around midsummer it stays light in Ebbsfleet until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is typically served 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.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Tell us what power and water the site has

FAQs for Ebbsfleet
Is Ebbsfleet close to London?
About 64 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
How many guests can you serve?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What if a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot?
The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Ebbsfleet.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.

With the sea within about 4 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze don’t mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
