Taco bar hire in Downley, from our food truck or trailer
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. At team socials and anniversary parties, we can serve burrito bowls, warm corn and flour tortillas and pickled onions and toppings and more.
Near Downley, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
- A sheltered spot if we are serving outside
- A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
Popular choices
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Tortilla chips
- Vegan fillings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Two to four fillings
The process
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. A December taco bar in Downley will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Share a few details about the event.
- We send a sample spread and a quote.

With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
Staff stay at the taco bar to refill bowls and answer questions about fillings and allergens.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.
