About our taco bar hire in Epsom Downs
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily. At wedding meals and engagement parties, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas, pickled onions and toppings and guacamole and more.
Near Epsom Downs, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Taco bar hire or something else?
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. From the truck, we put each order together; at the taco bar, guests do the building. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why book with us
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- Access, space and power checked in advance

For event organisers in Epsom Downs
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
How it works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. Evenings in Epsom Downs 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.

Planning help
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both
- Somewhere close by for our vehicle to park and unload
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

A closer look at the menu
Warm tortillas
Tortillas are the base of the bar. We warm them as the bar needs them through service.
Hot fillings
Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria.
Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Put allergies in writing for us
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Check where our vehicle can unload
Each dish is labelled, and allergen information is kept at the bar.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we will confirm what’s possible in your quote.
How we price taco bar hire
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How long we’re needed on site
- What’s on the menu
- Distance and access to the venue
- Whether you need disposables
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Expected numbers
- Your menu ideas
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and when you want service to start
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Common questions in Epsom Downs
Do you come out to small places like Epsom Downs?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Is it possible to have you in Priest Hill?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
What space does a taco bar need?
Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we’ll confirm what’s needed. We also need the venue’s permission.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so you do not need helpers. We pack it away afterwards.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.

Taco bar hire in Epsom Downs: local tips
Epsom Downs is about 1 mile south-east of Epsom, in Surrey. From the centre of Epsom Downs to the outskirts, taco bar hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Epsom Downs is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey where we can bring taco bar hire. Our nearest city page is Croydon, about 7 miles away.
Close to Epsom Downs are historic houses such as Fitznells Manor (2.1 miles north) and Nonsuch Mansion (2.6 miles north). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our food truck or trailer parks further off. If you are celebrating after a service at a church like Parish Church of St Martin, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. With the Surrey Hills National Landscape about 6 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Epsom Downs. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.
