Taco bar hire for Earlswood events
How our taco bar hire works in Earlswood
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Your hosts can stay with their guests. It suits retirement parties and wedding breakfasts, serving pickled onions and toppings, warm corn and flour tortillas and burrito bowls.
Near Earlswood, a hall or club may suit a taco bar if your own space is tight; the station needs a level surface, the venue’s permission and somewhere to unload. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Around midsummer it stays light in Earlswood until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is typically served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
- Once guests have eaten, we take down the bar and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
- A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
