Taco bar hire for your event in Curbridge
Fillings are agreed with you, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. It works well for family celebrations and evening receptions, serving burrito bowls, guacamole and fresh salsas.
A place like Curbridge may have a hall or a club nearby if your garden is small; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
DIY taco night versus 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.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Events we cater in Curbridge

What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Around midsummer it stays light in Curbridge until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is usually served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Contact us with your date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Common questions in Curbridge
Is Curbridge close to London?
It is about 65 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What’s the nearest station to Curbridge for guests?
The closest is Botley station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
What space does a taco bar need?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
It depends on the event and the timings. As a guide, our bookings normally fall around 50 to 400 guests.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Is the taco bar staffed?
We set up and stay to keep the bar hot and stocked.

The price comes down to a few factors:
- The length of service
