What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both
- A sheltered spot if we’re serving outside
- A clear area in front of the station
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.
What we offer
- Vegan fillings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Two to four fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Tortilla chips
How our taco bar hire works in Egerton
Truck and trailer bookings generally suit around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we will size the taco bar to match. It works well for team lunches and wedding day food, serving pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and warm corn and flour tortillas.
In a small place like Egerton, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Questions from Egerton
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St James?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
We set up and stay to keep the bar hot and stocked.
How we price taco bar hire
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many staff you need
- The number of people
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Distance and access to the venue
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- The venue or postcode
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- A picture of where we’d park
- Diets and allergies you know about
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send you a clear quote.

Egerton: venues, access and set-up
Egerton is about 7 miles north-west of Ashford, in Kent. We serve at events in gardens, halls and venues around Egerton. Egerton is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring taco bar hire. Our nearest city page is Maidstone, about 10 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Church of St James, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Egerton, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go.

The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. A December taco bar in Egerton will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

- We send a sample spread and a quote.
- Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
- We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
- Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
