Our caterer checklist

Taco bar hire in Tilmanstone, from our food truck or trailer

The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck can’t get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. Popular choices include burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and pickled onions and toppings, and it suits office lunches and leaving and retirement parties.

In a small place like Tilmanstone, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

A build-your-own taco bar in Tilmanstone

Tilmanstone is about 4 miles west of Deal, in Kent. For an event in Tilmanstone, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards. We serve in 922 places across Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Tilmanstone to Canterbury (about 10 miles away).

For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Shepherds Well station, about 3.3 miles south-west. After a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Andrew, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos. With the sea within about 5 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze don’t mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.

Here we cover the CT14 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. From Upper Street, Vicarage Lane and Chapel Road or a nearby road, we can bring taco bar hire there, given access. Other places close to Tilmanstone for taco bar hire include Elvington (2 miles west), Heronden (2 miles north), Chillenden (2 miles north-west), Barfrestone (2 miles west) and Hammill Park (3 miles north). Larger places within reach include Canterbury (10 miles north-west), Margate (12 miles north), Dover (5 miles south), Folkestone (11 miles south-west), Ramsgate (10 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (12 miles north-east).

Other landmarks nearby include Deal Castle (4.7 miles east) and Buckland Hospital (5.7 miles south).

Questions from Tilmanstone

How far is Tilmanstone from central London?

Roughly 63 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.

We are having a ceremony at Church of St Andrew: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.

What access do you need?

The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

How long do you serve for?

That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.

What if a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot?

It can go beside the truck or trailer, or somewhere a vehicle can’t reach. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

What do you serve?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.

How the day works

We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Daylight in Tilmanstone runs to about 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.

  1. Share a few details about the event.
  2. We send a sample spread and a quote.
  3. We check power, water and access with your venue.
  4. We set up the station and keep everything hot.
  5. At the end, we take everything away.

Before we arrive

  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

A closer look at the menu

Vegan fillings

Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own.

Salsas

A row of salsas, mild to hot, made for your event.

Before you choose a spot

The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:

  • The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
  • Space for a line of guests at the bar
  • Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

On the menu in Tilmanstone

  • Two to four fillings
  • Tortilla chips
  • Vegan fillings
  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Salsas and guacamole

View our sample menu

Dietary needs and planning tips

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Decide where the table goes before the day
  • Collect dietary needs with your replies
  • Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early

If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you are ready.

For larger groups, ask about a second serving point.

Should I do it myself?

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

For event organisers in Tilmanstone

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.

Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.

What affects the price in Tilmanstone

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • How many guests we are serving
  • Serving staff
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • How long we’re needed on site

Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

To check availability and price, we need:

  • The address or venue name
  • The date and time of the event
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • Expected numbers
