About our taco bar hire in Barford
Fillings are agreed with you, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. For barn and marquee parties and team lunches, we can serve burrito bowls, guacamole and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Barford, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Why choose taco bar hire in Barford?
Buffet trays can go cold and tired. Our fillings stay hot and the bowls are topped up as guests come back. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will talk licensing through with you and your venue.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Send us allergy details in writing
- Tell us when guests should eat
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.
Our truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar.
