Taco bar hire near Elmer
Taco bar hire in Elmer, 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 milestone birthdays and wedding meals, serving slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and a build-your-own taco bar.
A place like Elmer may have a hall or a club nearby if your garden is small; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.

Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Count children separately
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Make sure guests have somewhere to sit
Each dish is labelled, and allergen information is kept at the bar.
Nachos to share can keep guests going before the bar opens.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
Sandwich platters are convenient but forgettable. Warm tortillas and hot fillings give a lunch more to talk about. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

Common questions in Elmer
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Nicholas Church?
Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.
Is Elmer close to London?
Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What does a taco bar cost?
We quote for each taco bar, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
