Taco bar hire near Upper Hartfield
For event organisers in Upper Hartfield
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.

Taco bar hire in Upper Hartfield, served fresh
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. Popular choices include slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and pickled onions and toppings, which works well for marquee parties and evening receptions.
Near Upper Hartfield, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Upper Hartfield questions
Which station is closest to Upper Hartfield?
Ashurst Kent station, about 3.7 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Upper Hartfield?
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.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using 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.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. We fit it around your speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.

Historic houses near Upper Hartfield include Bassetts Manor (1.9 miles north) and Hammerwood Park (2.9 miles north-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like Holy Trinity Church, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. The High Weald National Landscape is within about 3 miles of Upper Hartfield, 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.
