Taco bar hire for your event in Abingworth
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. Popular choices include fresh salsas, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits evening wedding receptions and anniversary parties.
For a rural spot like Abingworth, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we will confirm power and water with you. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Common questions in Abingworth
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
What if a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. We agree the timings with your venue.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
How does a taco bar work?
Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
Can you plan for allergies?
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). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

How it works
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. Winter evenings in Abingworth close in by about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- We clear our station when service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Planning the serving area
We will be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
- A flat spot for the taco-bar station
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Count children separately
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers, quoted for your event.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
