A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. On the menu are fresh salsas, guacamole and pickled onions and toppings, and it suits office lunches and milestone birthdays.
Near Northfleet Green, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Common questions in Northfleet Green
Could you serve in Castle Hill 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 the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Who looks after the taco bar?
We run the station ourselves, so your hosts do not need to. We pack it away afterwards.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Decide where the table goes before the day
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
