New Hythe: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to New Hythe for guests?
Guests can use New Hythe station, which is right in New Hythe.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Leybourne Lakes Country Park?
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 will send what they need from us.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will go through the licensing with you.
Can you keep it mild?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
What space does a taco bar need?
Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we will confirm what’s needed. The venue’s agreement is needed too.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Why choose taco bar hire in New Hythe?

Catering for every guest
We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To get it right:
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

- Choose at least one vegan filling
After the last plate, we take the bar down and leave the spot tidy.
For larger groups, ask about a second serving point, quoted for your event.
