About our taco bar hire in Newenden
The bar can stand beside our food truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. It works well for office lunches and christenings and family parties, with slow-cooked fillings kept hot, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas.
In a small place like Newenden, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Newenden questions
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
Do you cater in villages like Newenden?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Do you cover Newenden?
Yes, we do. Newenden is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Newenden.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Do you have dairy-free options?
We can. We offer dairy-free options.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

After a christening or wedding at a church such as Parish Church of St Peter, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos.

- How bad weather is handled

- When payment is due

How it compares
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
