Can I do a taco night myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Taco bar hire in Fern, served fresh
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. It works well for working lunches and marquee parties, with fresh salsas, burrito bowls and pickled onions and toppings.
Near Fern, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Ensure one filling is vegan
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.
What taco bar hire costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How many staff you need
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
