Taco bar hire in Donnington, from our food truck or trailer
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, as long as the venue agrees. It suits evening receptions and working lunches, serving pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and guacamole.
In and around Donnington, a taco bar works beside the truck or in a hall nearby. Where access is tight, the truck stays nearby and the station goes where your guests are, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
