How our taco bar hire works in Chilton
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. We serve pickled onions and toppings, guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for team lunches and family get-togethers.
Near Chilton, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it; tell us about access and parking. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

How it compares
Compared with a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar handles vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests without separate plates. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

Questions from Chilton
How far is Chilton from London?
It is about 52 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
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.
Who looks after the taco bar?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so you do not need helpers. When service ends, we clear it away.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the bar around them.
What do you need at the venue?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
