Taco bar hire in Hoppers Corner, served fresh
We bring taco bars to events in and around Hoppers Corner: marquees, barns, gardens, halls and workplaces. For leaving dos and family get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Hoppers Corner, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Before you choose a spot
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Room for guests to queue along the table
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
On the menu in Hoppers Corner
- Tortilla chips
- Salsas and guacamole
- Two to four fillings
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Pickled onions and toppings
A build-your-own taco bar in Hoppers Corner
Hoppers Corner is about 3 miles west of Maidstone, in Kent. We serve at events in gardens, halls and venues around Hoppers Corner and nearby villages. We cater in 922 places in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
When the service is at a church such as All Saints Church, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Parks such as Quarry Wood usually need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 8 miles of Hoppers Corner, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go.
Wherever your event is in ME15, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. We can cater an event on streets such as Lower Road and Charlton Lane.

What taco bar hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The menu you choose
- Parking and the route in

What else we do in Hoppers Corner
Hoppers Corner: your questions answered
Is Hoppers Corner close to London?
It’s about 29 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.
How much is a taco bar?
Every taco bar is quoted for individually, based on numbers, fillings, the venue and timings. For a price, use our quote form.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Comparing your options
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. From the truck, we put each order together; at the taco bar, guests do the building. 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.
Why us?
- Allergen-aware menus
- Quoted for your event
- Fast service, even with a queue
- Access, space and power checked in advance

- Send us allergy details in writing
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Choose at least one vegan filling
After the last plate, we take the bar down and leave the spot tidy.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers, quoted for your event.

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
