Mexican bar hire for Shalstone events
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Historic houses near Shalstone include Stowe House (2 miles east). Before booking a historic venue, find out whether it lets an outside bar bring a vehicle on site. Historic buildings near Shalstone often have strict rules for outside caterers, so ask early if that’s your venue.

Common questions in Shalstone
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Edward: can you cater afterwards?
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’ll check the access.
Is Shalstone close to London?
It’s about 55 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us 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). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Contact us for a quote.
How it works
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. Winter receptions in Shalstone are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. Midsummer is the opposite, with daylight until about 9:30pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- After service, we clear the bar away.

How it compares
A self-service drinks table is simple but can run dry or go warm. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
