Taco bar hire near Childrey
The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. A December taco bar in Childrey will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
- Once guests have eaten, we take down the bar and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Ask the venue about power and water
Ask for a quote
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. We agree the timings with your venue.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
What do you need at the venue?
Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we’ll check it works. We also need the venue’s permission.

Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Tell us your numbers and we’ll plan the bar around them.
