About our taco bar hire in Elsted Marsh
The toppings are where guests get creative: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema. Popular choices include warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and fresh salsas, and it is a good fit for engagement and anniversary parties and garden parties.
In a small place like Elsted Marsh, 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, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Prices and what affects them
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Whether you need disposables
- Food, drinks or both
- Staff for serving and the bar
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
- The venue or postcode
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just tell us about it on our contact page.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Popular choices
Hot fillings
Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.
Warm tortillas
Soft corn and flour tortillas, kept warm so there is always one ready. The corn ones suit gluten-free guests.
For event organisers in Elsted Marsh
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
