Taco bar hire in Stonehill Green, served fresh
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, as long as the venue agrees. Popular choices include fresh salsas, warm corn and flour tortillas and guacamole, and it suits garden parties and working lunches.
Somewhere as small as Stonehill Green, 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, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.

What taco bar hire costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- What the venue already provides
- Serving staff
- Guest numbers
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

FAQs for Stonehill Green
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Peter?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
What’s the nearest station to Stonehill Green for guests?
Swanley station, about 1.4 miles south of the centre.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes through service.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
How does a taco bar work?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
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 let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
