Taco bar hire for East Stratton events
How we price taco bar hire
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of people
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Travel, parking and access
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- A picture of the space, if it is a garden or field
- The venue or postcode
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Taco bar hire in East Stratton, from our truck or trailer
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. It suits wedding evening food and birthday parties, serving pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and guacamole.
In a small place like East Stratton, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
Planning the serving area
We will agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
- Permission from the venue for us to set up
- Room for guests to queue along the table
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
What we offer
- Salsas and guacamole
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Pickled onions and toppings
Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Count children separately
- Set out seating near the bar
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up.
Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.

Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.

FAQs for East Stratton
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Which station is closest to East Stratton?
The closest is Micheldever station, roughly 2.5 miles away.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, including Hampshire. Find your area.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How does a taco bar work?
A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and each guest builds their own. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.
What do you need at the venue?
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.
How much does taco bar hire cost in East Stratton?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
How much is a taco bar?
We don’t publish set prices, as each booking is different. Send us your details and we will quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
