Taco bar hire in Kemsley Street, served fresh
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. Popular choices include slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and pickled onions and toppings, which works well for back-garden gatherings and engagement parties.
Near Kemsley Street, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Send us allergy details in writing
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Check where our vehicle can unload
If the schedule slips, tell us and we will hold everything hot until you are ready.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we’ll confirm what’s possible in your quote.
Comparing your options
A taco bar and a truck serve the same food in different ways. From the truck, we put each order together; at the taco bar, guests do the building. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
What you get with us
- A menu built around your guests
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- A quote that sets out what’s included

Taco bars for events around Kemsley Street
Kemsley Street is about 3 miles south of Gillingham, in Medway. Across the ME7 area, we will come to your venue or site, as long as there’s access. Kemsley Street is one of 68 towns and villages in Medway we cover.
Guests leaving a church like Church of St Peter could head to a nearby hall or garden where the taco bar is ready. Parks such as Levan Strice normally need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 6 miles of Kemsley Street, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles cannot reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by.
Here we cover the ME7 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. We also serve at events in Bredhurst (1 mile west), Scragged Oak (1 mile south), Dunn Street (1 mile south-west), Park Wood (1 mile north-east) and Lower Cox Street (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also cater in Gillingham (3 miles north), Chatham (3 miles north-west), Rochester (6 miles north-west), Strood (6 miles north-west), Luton (3 miles north-west) and Twydall (3 miles north).

- Nearby schools include Rainham School for Girls (2.1 miles north)
The process
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. In Kemsley Street, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- We clear our station when service ends.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Ask the venue about power and water

Kemsley Street questions
Do you come out to small places like Kemsley Street?
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.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Levan Strice?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
What space does a taco bar need?
Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. We confirm power and water when you book.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A sheltered spot if we are serving outside
- A flat spot for the taco-bar station
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Popular choices
- Vegan fillings
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Tortilla chips
- Two to four fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What taco bar hire costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Parking and the route in
- Staff for serving and the bar
- How long we’re needed on site
- Food, drinks or both
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
