If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Popular choices

- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings

Taco bar hire in Whitfield, from our truck or trailer
Our taco bar travels to events across Whitfield and the surrounding area: marquees, barns, gardens, halls and workplaces, wherever there’s room for the table. For birthday celebrations and family get-togethers, we can serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, warm corn and flour tortillas and burrito bowls for your guests.
A place like Whitfield may have a hall or a club nearby if your garden is small; the station needs a level surface, the venue’s permission and somewhere to unload. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

How it works
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We’re ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. A December taco bar in Whitfield will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:15pm.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Planning a taco bar in Whitfield
Whitfield is about 1 mile north of Dover, in Kent. Wherever your event is in the CT16 area, we will come to your venue or site. Whitfield is one of 922 places in Kent where we can bring taco bar hire. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Whitfield to Canterbury (about 12 miles away).
Parks such as Old Park Hill typically need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. After a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Peter, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos. Venues in and around the Kent Downs National Landscape, within about 8 miles of Whitfield, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our truck or trailer could go. Coastal events near Whitfield, within about 3 miles of the sea, bring wind into the planning. Tell us where the taco bar would go and where we can park to unload.
This part of Kent takes in CT16. Whether your event is on Khartoum Square, Wheatsheaf Square and Alison Crescent or a nearby road, we can bring taco bar hire there, given access. If your venue is just outside Whitfield, we also cover Temple Ewell (1 mile south-west), River (1 mile south-west), Kearsney (1 mile south-west), Dover (1 mile south) and Lydden (2 miles west). Larger places within reach include Canterbury (12 miles north-west), Folkestone (8 miles south-west), Ramsgate (13 miles north), Broadstairs (15 miles north-east), Deal (6 miles north-east) and Hythe (11 miles south-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Buckland Hospital (1.9 miles south) and Dover Transport Museum (0.7 miles south). Green spaces nearby include Dover Western Heights.
- Nearby schools include St Edmund's Catholic School (1.7 miles south)
Common questions in Whitfield
Could you serve in Old Park Hill?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Is Whitfield close to London?
Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What does taco bar hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not generally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How it compares
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. From the truck, we put each order together; at the bar, guests build their own. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Tell us how many children are coming
Fillings are kept hot and tortillas warmed in batches.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
The menu, item by item
Hot fillings
You might choose two or three fillings, with at least one vegan. We agree them with you.
Warm tortillas
Corn and flour tortillas, warmed through in batches. Corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
