How our taco bar hire works in Ellen's Green

We bring taco bars to events in and around Ellen's Green: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices. On the menu are slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas, and it is a good fit for barn and marquee parties and christenings and family parties.

In a small place like Ellen's Green, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Ellen's Green questions

Do you come to events in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.

What’s the nearest station to Ellen's Green for guests?

Guests can use Warnham station, about 4 miles east of Ellen's Green.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

How spicy is the food?

The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.

Can you serve in the rain?

The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.

When do you arrive?

We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.

Can you set up where a truck cannot get in?

The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.

Do you stay to run the taco bar?

We run the station ourselves, so your hosts do not need to. When service ends, we clear it away.

The process

Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Evenings in Ellen's Green stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. Once it gets dark, guests need to see what they’re adding to their tacos.

  1. Get in touch with your date and headcount.
  2. We agree a menu that covers every diet.
  3. Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
  4. Service starts when your running order says.
  5. We clear our station when service ends.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Tell us what power and water the site has

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

How it compares

A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen, waiting staff and fixed courses. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

What you get with us

  • A plan agreed before the day
