About our taco bar hire in Eastrop
Our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the taco bar to match. It suits team socials and team lunches, with pickled onions and toppings, guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
Near Eastrop, 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 serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
How it compares
A taco bar and a truck serve the same food in different ways. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
