Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Our drinks bar can be hired with the truck with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. A build-your-own taco bar can sit beside the truck too. It suits private outdoor parties and end-of-year parties, with loaded nachos, burritos and quesadillas.
