About our taco bar hire in Bentworth
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. It works well for engagement parties and back-garden gatherings, with warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
Near Bentworth, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you need disposables
- The number of people
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

- Your menu ideas
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Where the event is

Bentworth: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Bentworth?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
We’re having a ceremony at St. Mary's Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
What do you need at the venue?
Tell us about the venue and the spot you have in mind, and we will confirm what’s needed. We also need the venue’s permission.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
