Taco bar hire near Westwood
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Taco bar hire in Westwood, from our food truck or trailer
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added. On the menu are warm corn and flour tortillas, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, which works well for retirement parties and barn and marquee parties.
For a place the size of Westwood, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and guests build their own tacos. Let us know about the drive and parking. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

What affects the price in Westwood
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Serving staff
- Whether you need disposables
- Distance and access to the venue
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs and allergies
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
We get there early enough to unload, lay out the table and heat everything through.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.

Taco bar hire in Westwood: local tips
Westwood is about 1 mile south of Margate, in Kent. Give us the address of your event in Westwood, and we will plan the journey and set-up. We serve in 922 places across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for Canterbury, about 15 miles away.
By road, Westwood is on or near the A254, so bringing the taco bar and our food truck or trailer is straightforward. Local halls and clubs near Westwood can host a taco bar if your own space is small, as long as we can unload nearby. Westwood is within about 2 miles of the sea, so for a seaside taco bar we plan around the wind. A sheltered spot for the station helps, and seafront sites generally need permission.
We cater events across the CT9 and CT10 postcode area. Your event could be at a home on Leo Road, Nash Road and Luna Road or the roads around them. With the A254 close by, Westwood is easy for us to reach.

Westwood: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Parish Church of St John the Baptist?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Could you come to a seaside event near Westwood?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes.
How much is a taco bar?
There is no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
How does a taco bar work?
A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests build their own tacos. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
