Taco bar hire in Arborfield, from our food truck or trailer
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. It suits summer garden parties and wedding day food, with guacamole, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and fresh salsas.
Near Arborfield, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Common questions in Arborfield

What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Arborfield.
