Taco bar hire for Burley events
How it compares
A taco bar and a truck serve the same food in different ways. At the hatch, we make each order; at the taco bar, guests do the building. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
Why book with us
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Every guest catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch

Taco bar hire in Burley, served fresh
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. For evening wedding receptions and wedding day food, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, pickled onions and toppings and fresh salsas for your guests.
Near Burley, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we will confirm power and water with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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 dishes for guests with allergies.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Burley is within about a mile of the New Forest National Park, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar.

Burley: your questions answered
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
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.
Do you come to events in the New Forest National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
What do you need at the venue?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. We confirm power and water when you book.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
What does a taco bar cost?
We don’t publish set prices, as each booking is different. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will plan the menu around them.
What does taco bar hire cost?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Contact us for a quote.
