Taco bar hire in Lydd-on-Sea
How our taco bar hire works in Lydd-on-Sea
We bring taco bars to events in and around Lydd-on-Sea: marquees, barns, gardens, halls and workplaces. At wedding day food and working lunches, we can serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas.
Somewhere as small as Lydd-on-Sea, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set 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 set-up goes smoothly.
Occasions we cater for in Lydd-on-Sea
A taco bar feeds a crowd steadily.
These are some of the occasions we serve:
- Wedding day food
- Team lunches
- Retirement parties
- Engagement parties
When the service is at a church such as St Peter's, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether plates, napkins and cutlery are included
- How each diet is kept separate
- The deadline for final numbers
- When payment is due
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Room for guests to queue along the table
- Space for a serving table on level ground
- Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Menu ideas
- Salsas and guacamole
- Two to four fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Vegan fillings
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Tortilla chips
Comparing your options
Sandwich platters are convenient but forgettable. Warm tortillas and hot fillings give a lunch more to talk about. 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.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
