Taco bar hire for your event in Tyler Hill
We run the taco bar ourselves: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Your hosts can stay with their guests. It suits wedding evening food and anniversary parties, with pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
Near Tyler Hill, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we will confirm power and water with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.
Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
About the menu
Hot fillings
Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.
Warm tortillas
Tortillas are the base of the bar. We warm them as the bar needs them through service.
A build-your-own taco bar in Tyler Hill
Tyler Hill is about 2 miles north of Canterbury, in Kent. Events in Tyler Hill are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. Tyler Hill is one of 922 places in Kent we cover.
Parks such as Tyler Hill Meadow typically need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Canterbury West station, about 1.6 miles south. 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.
We cater events across the CT2 postcode area and the streets around it. Streets in the area include St Johns Crescent, Link Road and Summer Lane, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Close by, we cover events in Hackington (1 mile south-east), Blean (1 mile west), Honey Hill (2 miles west), Radfall (2 miles north) and Denstroude (2 miles west). Further out, we also cater in Ashford (15 miles south-west), Margate (15 miles east), Dover (15 miles south-east), Sittingbourne (15 miles west), Ramsgate (15 miles east) and Whitstable (3 miles north-west).
A little further out are Whitefriars Shopping Centre (2.2 miles south) and Canterbury Castle (2.2 miles south). Open spaces near Tyler Hill include Blean Woods RSPB Reserve.
- Nearby schools include The Archbishop's School (1 mile south) and St Edmund's School (1.2 miles south)
How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Winter evenings in Tyler Hill close in by about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

Taco bar hire or something else?
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. A taco bar needs a serving spot, somewhere close to unload and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed when you book. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

FAQs for Tyler Hill
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Cosmus and St Damian?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
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.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the bar around them.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you set up where a truck can’t get in?
The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.

A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. We fit it around your speeches and photos. There’s more in our taco bar guide.
