Taco bar hire for Upchurch events
About our taco bar hire in Upchurch
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily. We serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and guacamole, and it is a good fit for evening wedding receptions and family celebrations.
In a hamlet or village like Upchurch, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
Step by step
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. A December taco bar in Upchurch will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, how many guests and any diets.
- You get a suggested taco-bar spread and a quote.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Upchurch
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary the Virgin: 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. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Upchurch?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. Tell us about the parking, the doors and the space for the station.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
How much is a taco bar?
Every taco bar is quoted for individually, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Make sure one filling is vegan
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Fit the bar into your running order
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

Is taco bar hire right for your event?
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, and power and water are confirmed with each booking. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Upchurch: venues, access and set-up
Upchurch is about 3 miles east of Gillingham, in Kent. Give us the address of your event in Upchurch, and we’ll plan access and set-up. Upchurch is one of 922 places in Kent we cover. Our nearest city page is Maidstone, about 9 miles away.
Parks such as Berengrave Chalk Pit normally need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. Guests leaving a church like Church of St Mary the Virgin could head to a nearby hall or garden where the taco bar is ready. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 8 miles of Upchurch, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles can’t reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by.
We serve at events all over ME9 and ME8 and the streets around it. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on The Street, Crosier Court and Horsham Lane. Close by, we cover events in Lower Halstow (1 mile east), Breach (1 mile south), Moor Street (1 mile south-west), Lower Rainham (1 mile west) and Newington (2 miles south-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Maidstone (9 miles south-west), Sittingbourne (4 miles south-east), Gravesend (12 miles west), Faversham (11 miles east), Northfleet (14 miles west) and Minster (7 miles north-east).
Nearby you will also find Medway Maritime Hospital (4.5 miles west) and Bayford Court (4.8 miles south-east). Not far away are Bishop Saltings.
- Nearby schools include Leigh Academy Rainham (1.4 miles south-west)
Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Space for a line of guests at the bar
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you’re booking both
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
