Taco bar hire in Chelwood Common, served fresh
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. It works well for family celebrations and office lunches, with slow-cooked fillings kept hot, burrito bowls and warm corn and flour tortillas.
Near Chelwood Common, 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 turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

What’s on the menu
Hot fillings
Fillings cooked ahead and kept hot, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.
Salsas

Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
- Ensure one filling is vegan
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Decide where the table goes before the day
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

Chelwood Common is within about 4 miles of the High Weald National Landscape, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles can’t reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by.

Should I do it myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
How it works
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. A December taco bar in Chelwood Common will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Share a few details about the event.

- Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
- We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
- At the end, we take everything away.
Before we arrive

Will you travel to a small place like Chelwood Common?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
What’s on the menu?
Every menu is agreed with you. 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.
How it compares
Buffet trays can go cold and tired. We keep the fillings hot and refill the dishes through service. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
