Taco bar hire in Crabtree, from our truck or trailer
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. Popular choices include warm corn and flour tortillas, pickled onions and toppings and fresh salsas, which works well for evening wedding receptions and wedding day food.
In a hamlet or village like Crabtree, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Tell us how many children are coming
Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Why choose taco bar hire in Crabtree?
A sandwich platter is easy to order but rarely remembered. Warm tortillas and hot fillings give a lunch more to talk about. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
