Taco bar hire in Cramhurst
Taco bar hire for your event in Cramhurst
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. For company parties and summer garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas and more.
Somewhere as small as Cramhurst, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot.

Taco bar hire or something else?
Pizza is a safe choice, but a taco bar gives guests more say over what they eat. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

How we price taco bar hire
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many guests we’re serving
- How long we are needed on site
Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

Common questions in Cramhurst
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. Tell us about the parking, the doors and the space for the station.
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Do you cater in Cramhurst?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Cramhurst and the rest of Surrey. For a quote, use our quote form.
What space does a taco bar need?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. We confirm power and water when you book.
Is a taco bar suitable for a big group?
Our service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the bar to suit.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
About the menu
Guacamole
No taco bar is complete without guacamole.
Toppings
The toppings are where guests make each taco their own.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
