About our taco bar hire in Cove
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. For leaving dos and back-garden gatherings, we can serve pickled onions and toppings, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas.
Near Cove, a hall or club may suit a taco bar if your own space is tight; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. You’ll know what’s included before booking: menu, timings and any add-ons.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Questions from Cove
Is Cove close to London?
About 33 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is it possible to have you in Ancells Farm Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Is a taco bar suitable for a big group?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the bar to suit.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What’s on the menu
Vegan fillings
Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own.
Hot fillings
You might choose two or three fillings. We agree them with you.
How we price taco bar hire
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- How many staff you need
- Food, drinks or both
- Whether you need disposables
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- The address or venue name
- Your menu ideas
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

Parks such as Ancells Farm Park typically need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like St John the Baptist, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission.

What else we do in Cove
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Check where our vehicle can unload
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
