Taco bar hire near Hareplain
How our taco bar hire works in Hareplain
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily, and nobody waits long. Popular choices include pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas, which works well for garden parties and wedding breakfasts.
Near Hareplain, 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 confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
What taco bar hire costs

Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Any dietary needs and allergies

- Your menu ideas
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just send us your details through our quote form.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Make sure guests have somewhere to sit
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Tell us how many children are coming
Staff stay at the taco bar to refill bowls and answer questions about fillings and allergens.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we will set out the options in your quote.
What’s on the menu
Guacamole
No taco bar is complete without guacamole, so we keep it topped up.
Toppings
The toppings are where guests make each taco their own, and dairy-free choices are kept apart.
Questions from Hareplain
Will you travel to a small place like Hareplain?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
How far is Hareplain from central London?
It is about 40 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
What does a taco bar cost?
We don’t publish set prices, as each booking is different. Share your plans and you’ll get a quote. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
Is the food suitable for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you cover Hareplain?
Yes, we do. We serve at events in Hareplain and across Kent. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Organising for someone else?
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Where the truck can go in Hareplain
We’ll be honest if a space will not work. What matters most:
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
- Room for guests to queue along the table
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Popular choices

DIY taco night versus a caterer

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
