Taco bar hire in Ewell
Taco bar hire for your event in Ewell
Taco bars suit wedding breakfasts, parties and office lunches alike. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily, and nobody waits long. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, guacamole and warm corn and flour tortillas, and it’s a good fit for wedding evening food and marquee parties.
Some gardens in Ewell can only be reached on foot, which is where a taco bar helps: the truck stays on the drive or road, with permission, and the station goes in the garden. Let us know the route from where we’d park. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Timings and hours
What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- What you’d like on the menu
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- The date and rough timings
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Organising a club, school or community event in Ewell? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Make sure guests have somewhere to sit
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Fit the bar into your running order
Our staff stand behind the bar to top up dishes and help guests about fillings and allergens.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.
Common questions in Ewell
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Mary's 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 will check the access.
How far is Ewell from London?
It’s about 12 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
What if a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Space, access and the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- A clear area in front of the station
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Popular choices
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Salsas and guacamole
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Vegan fillings
Popular choices
Toppings
Pickled onions, coriander, lime, lettuce and cheese, agreed with you.
