How our taco bar hire works in Chilworth
We run the taco bar ourselves: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. It works well for wedding evening food and barn parties, serving guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
In a small place like Chilworth, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
What happens on the day
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Planning an evening taco bar in Chilworth?

Chilworth questions
Is Chilworth close to London?
About 27 miles from central London.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Thomas?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What does a taco bar cost?
We quote for each taco bar, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Details of power and water near the bar
- The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
