Taco bar hire for your event in Horton Kirby
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. It works well for family celebrations and wedding meals, with fresh salsas, guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a small place like Horton Kirby, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Horton Kirby questions
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
Which station should guests use for Horton Kirby?
Farningham Road station, about 0.8 miles north-west of the centre.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
How does a taco bar work?
A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and each guest builds their own. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What does a taco bar cost?
There is no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
Horton Kirby: venues, access and set-up

Horton Kirby is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we can bring taco bar hire. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Horton Kirby to Maidstone (15 miles away).

Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go.
