Taco bar hire in Palmarsh
Why choose taco bar hire in Palmarsh?
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. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What you get with us
- Allergen information for every dish
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- A plan agreed before the day
- A clear quote

How our taco bar hire works in Palmarsh
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. For wedding day food and back-garden gatherings, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and fresh salsas.
A place like Palmarsh may have a hall or a club nearby if your garden is small; the station needs a level surface, the venue’s permission and somewhere to unload. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Send us allergy details in writing
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
How the day works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Evenings in Palmarsh stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm. Once it gets dark, guests need to see what they’re adding to their tacos.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- We confirm the table spot and where we will unload.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Your questions about taco bar hire in Palmarsh
Is Palmarsh close to London?
It’s about 58 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Holy Cross?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What space does a taco bar need?
Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. We confirm power and water when you book.
Who looks after the taco bar?
We set up and stay to keep the bar hot and stocked.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Planning a taco bar in Palmarsh
Palmarsh is about 2 miles south-west of Hythe, in Kent. Whether your event is in the middle of Palmarsh or on the outskirts, taco bar hire works the same way: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. We cover all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Palmarsh to Canterbury (about 15 miles away).
If people are travelling in by rail, Sandling station is about 2 miles away. When the service is at a church such as Holy Cross, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Palmarsh, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our truck or trailer could go. With the sea within about 2 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze do not mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.
Wherever your event is in CT21, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Local streets include Nickolls Road, Blackman Road and Burmarsh Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. For events just outside Palmarsh, we cover West Hythe (1 mile north-west), Pedlinge (1 mile north), Lympne (1 mile north-west), Berwick (1 mile north-west) and Hythe (2 miles north-east). Further out, we also cater in Ashford (10 miles north-west), Canterbury (15 miles north), Dover (12 miles north-east), Folkestone (5 miles east), Tower Hamlets (12 miles north-east) and Hawkinge (6 miles north-east).
