About our taco bar hire in Cole Henley
You choose the fillings with us, such as pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. Popular choices include guacamole, pickled onions and toppings and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it suits evening wedding receptions and wedding meals.
In a hamlet or village like Cole Henley, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

How it works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Cole Henley, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is typically served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Send us your date, where the taco bar will go, numbers and dietary needs.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
