About our taco bar hire in Alfold
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. At family celebrations and barn and marquee parties, we can serve pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot and more.
For a rural spot like Alfold, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

- Timings and hours

Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Winter evenings in Alfold close in by about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- We confirm the table spot and where we’ll unload.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- We clear the bar away after service.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

- Permission from the venue for us to set up
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
