About taco bar hire in Reading

Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. Popular choices include burrito bowls, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, which works well for garden parties and engagement parties.

We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure.

Build-your-own taco bars in Reading

From Caversham, Norcot and West Reading to 18 villages and hamlets, events across Reading take place in halls, gardens, barns and hired venues, and a taco bar station works beside the truck or on its own where the truck cannot go. We always need a place nearby to park and unload.

Caversham: Parks such as Eldon Square generally need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. Guests arriving without a car will want to know that Reading station is about 1.3 miles away. Evenings in Caversham stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. After dusk, lights over the station help guests build their tacos.

Catering for every guest

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

Set out seating near the bar
Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.

Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
