Hollingbourne: venues, access and set-up
Hollingbourne is about 5 miles east of Maidstone, in Kent. From the centre of Hollingbourne to the outskirts, taco bar hire works the same way: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Hollingbourne is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring taco bar hire.
If you are celebrating after a service at a church like All Saints Church, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. For guests coming by train, Hollingbourne station is about 0.6 miles away. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about a mile of Hollingbourne, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our truck or trailer could go.

About our taco bar hire in Hollingbourne
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. On the menu are burrito bowls, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and guacamole, and it’s a good fit for leaving dos and wedding day food.
For a rural spot like Hollingbourne, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Around midsummer it stays light in Hollingbourne until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Send us your date, where the taco bar will go, numbers and dietary needs.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- We agree where the table goes and where our vehicle can unload.
- Our staff set up the station, keep the fillings hot and top up the bar through service.
- Once guests have eaten, we take down the bar and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we’ll confirm what’s possible in your quote.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
- Space for a line of guests at the bar
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Hollingbourne
Which station is closest to Hollingbourne?
Guests can use Hollingbourne station, about 0.6 miles west of Hollingbourne.
We’re having a ceremony at All Saints Church: can you cater afterwards?
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 will check the access.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
It depends on the event and the timings. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. Service is timed around speeches and photos. There’s more in our taco bar guide.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
A closer look at the menu
Guacamole
Guacamole goes quickly on a taco bar, so we keep it topped up.
Salsas
A row of salsas, mild to hot, made for your event.
Comparing your options
Buffet trays can go cold and tired. Our fillings stay hot and the bowls are topped up as guests come back. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
