Taco bar hire in Alfold Bars, from our truck or trailer
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. It suits team lunches and wedding breakfasts, serving slow-cooked fillings kept hot, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole.
Near Alfold Bars, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Alfold Bars questions
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
Do you need electricity?
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 do you need at the venue?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The menu you choose
- Guest numbers
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How long we’re needed on site
