How it compares
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen, waiting staff and fixed courses. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
What you get with us
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Menus chosen with you
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- A clear quote

Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
If the schedule slips, tell us and we’ll hold everything hot until you are ready.
Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
What’s on the menu
Vegan fillings
Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own, not an afterthought.
Hot fillings
Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Room for guests to queue along the table
- Space for a serving table on level ground
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
