How our taco bar hire works in Chestnut Street
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too, with licensing checked with you. For barn and marquee parties and wedding day food, we will put together a menu of guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and burrito bowls and more.
In a small place like Chestnut Street, 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, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
About the menu
Hot fillings
Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.
Vegan fillings
Black bean and sweet potato, or spiced mushrooms.
Why choose taco bar hire in Chestnut Street?
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. A taco bar needs a serving spot, somewhere close to unload and the venue’s agreement, and power and water are confirmed with each booking. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
What we offer in Chestnut Street

What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not normally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Around midsummer it stays light in Chestnut Street until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
