Taco bar hire near Nonington
Taco bar hire for your event in Nonington
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added. At evening receptions and staff parties, we can serve fresh salsas, a build-your-own taco bar and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Nonington, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
A closer look at the menu
Toppings
Lime, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema.
Hot fillings
Fillings cooked ahead and kept hot, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Put allergies in writing for us
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Fit the bar into your running order
Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up.
Our truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
If you want food that feels sociable but still well run, a taco bar suits events well. There is no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Planning a taco bar in Nonington
Nonington is about 7 miles north-west of Dover, in Kent. We cater events at gardens, halls and venues around Nonington and nearby villages. We serve in all 922 towns and villages in Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Nonington to Canterbury (about 7 miles away).
By rail: the nearest station is Aylesham station, about 0.8 miles west. Around Nonington, historic houses include Goodnestone Park (1.4 miles north). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. Nonington is within about 7 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles can’t reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by.
This part of Kent takes in CT15. We can cater an event on streets such as Vicarage Lane, St Mary's Close and Park View Rise or the roads around them. If your venue is just outside Nonington, we also cover Snowdown (1 mile south-west), Frogham (1 mile south), Ratling (1 mile north-west), Chillenden (1 mile north-east) and Barfrestone (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also cater in Canterbury (7 miles north-west), Margate (13 miles north-east), Dover (7 miles south-east), Folkestone (10 miles south), Ramsgate (11 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (13 miles north-east).
Nonington: your questions answered
Is Nonington close to London?
It is about 60 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
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.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We agree the timings with your venue, and guests build their own plates.
Do you come to Nonington?
We do. Nonington is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How we price taco bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Guest numbers
- Food, drinks or both
- How long we are needed on site
- Distance and access to the venue
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How we drive in and where we can park
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.
What we offer
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Tortilla chips
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Two to four fillings
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. In Nonington, 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. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Tell us about your event and your guests.
- You get a suggested taco-bar menu and a quote.
- We check power, water and access with your venue.
- We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
- Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.
How to prepare
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
How to get a price
