Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.
A wider range of salsas suits guests who like it mild and those who like it hot.
Taco bar hire in West Stourmouth, from our truck or trailer
Our taco bar travels to events across West Stourmouth and the surrounding area: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices. At staff parties and garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and guacamole.
Near West Stourmouth, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

We serve in all 922 towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 7 miles away.
By rail: Minster station is about 3.7 miles away. Thinking of a taco bar in Grove Ferry Picnic Area? Catering in a public park typically needs the landowner’s permission, so check first. With the sea within about 6 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.
