About our taco bar hire in Bucknell
Toppings make the bar: pickled onions, coriander, lime, shredded lettuce and cheese, depending on the menu you choose. For birthday celebrations and staff parties, we can serve pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and guacamole for your guests.
In a small place like Bucknell, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
