Taco bar hire for your event in Hildenborough
You choose the fillings with us, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. On the menu are fresh salsas, guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar, and it is a good fit for barn parties and birthday celebrations.
Near Hildenborough, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Hildenborough: your questions answered
Which station should guests use for Hildenborough?
Guests can use Hildenborough station, about 0.7 miles west of Hildenborough.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Parish Church of St John?
Yes. The church itself is not 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 have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Who looks after the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes through service.
Do you cover Hildenborough?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Hildenborough is within our area and the rest of Kent. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Is a taco bar suitable for a big group?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the bar around them.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will go through the licensing with you.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
How it works
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we’ve agreed, planned around your event. In Hildenborough, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is normally served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
