About our taco bar hire in Birtley Green
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, which works well for christenings and family parties and evening wedding receptions.
Near Birtley Green, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it; tell us about access and parking. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Your questions about taco bar hire in Birtley Green

We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.

Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?

Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

How we price taco bar hire

- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field

Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December taco bar in Birtley Green will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, how many guests and any diets.
- You get a suggested taco-bar spread and a quote.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
- When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Share the running order, including any speeches
How to get a price
