FAQs for Hazelwood
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Do you cater in villages like Hazelwood?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Is the taco bar staffed?
We set up and stay to keep the bar hot and stocked.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
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.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
How much is a taco bar?
Every taco bar is quoted for individually, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. For a price, fill in our quote form.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. We fit it around your speeches and photos. There is more in our taco bar guide.
Planning a taco bar in Hazelwood
Hazelwood is about 4 miles south of Orpington, in Kent. Tell us where your event in Hazelwood will be, and we’ll plan access and set-up before the day. We cater in 922 places in Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Hazelwood to Croydon (about 8 miles away).
Nearby historic houses include Down House (1 mile west) and Quebec House (4.7 miles south). Estates and listed houses set their own rules for caterers, so check where a taco bar station and our vehicle would be permitted before booking. If people are travelling in by rail, the nearest station is Chelsfield station, about 2.1 miles north-east. With the Kent Downs National Landscape about 5 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Hazelwood. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.
This part of Kent takes in TN14. Streets in the area include Hazelwood Road, Cudham Lane North and Spinney Way, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. For events just outside Hazelwood, we cover Downe (1 mile west), Luxted (1 mile south-west), Cudham (1 mile south), Single Street (1 mile south-west) and Green Street Green (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also cater in Dartford (10 miles north-east), Sevenoaks (6 miles south-east), Gravesend (15 miles north-east), Tonbridge (13 miles south-east), Northfleet (14 miles north-east) and Swanley (6 miles north-east).
A little further out are Orpington Hospital (2.1 miles north-east) and Crofton Roman Villa (2.7 miles north). Not far away are Betsom's Hill and Downe Bank Nature Reserve.
- Nearby schools include Green Street Green Primary School (1.4 miles north-east)
- Pubs nearby include George and Dragon pub (0.9 miles west)
Should I do it myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
How the day works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. Evenings in Hazelwood stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. After dusk, lights over the station help guests build their tacos.

What affects the price in Hazelwood
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the route in
- The length of service
- The menu you choose
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- The date and rough timings
- Expected numbers
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Diets and allergies you know about
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Why choose taco bar hire in Hazelwood?
