Taco bar hire in Abbotts Barton, served fresh
We run the taco bar ourselves: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Your hosts can stay with their guests. It suits company parties and leaving dos, with slow-cooked fillings kept hot, burrito bowls and fresh salsas.
In a smaller place like Abbotts Barton, a taco bar in your garden or a local hall keeps things simple. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Tell us where we can park and unload. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Can I do a taco night myself?
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. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Questions from Abbotts Barton
Is Abbotts Barton close to London?
About 60 miles from central London, and well within our area.
We are having a ceremony at St Bartholomew's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you need power and water?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we will park.
What does taco bar hire cost?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can you set up where a truck can’t get in?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Step by step
Here’s how the day usually runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Around midsummer it stays light in Abbotts Barton until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- You get a suggested taco-bar spread and a quote.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
- When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many guests we are serving
- Serving staff
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
