A build-your-own taco bar in Ford
Ford is about 4 miles south-west of Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire. Across the HP17 area, we can bring the truck or trailer to you, as long as there is access. We cover all 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Ford to High Wycombe (11 miles away).
The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 6 miles of Ford, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles can’t reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by.
Anywhere in HP17, we can bring taco bar hire to you. Local streets include Linden Way and Chapel Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Nearby, we also cater events in Dinton (1 mile north-west), Upton (1 mile north), Bishopstone (2 miles east), Owlswick (2 miles south-east) and Sedrup (2 miles north-east). Further out, we also cater in Aylesbury (4 miles north-east), High Wycombe (11 miles south-east), Chesham (12 miles east), Marlow (15 miles south), Amersham (14 miles south-east) and Beaconsfield (15 miles south-east).
Nearby you will also find Dinton Castle (1.6 miles north-west) and National Paralympic Heritage Centre (3.7 miles north-east). The countryside around Ford includes Beacon Hill and Snakemoor.
- Nearby, you will find The Dinton Hermit Public House (less than half a mile north-east)
About our taco bar hire in Ford
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. We serve pickled onions and toppings, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it suits wedding breakfasts and retirement parties.
Somewhere as small as Ford, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Ford: your questions answered
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
What’s the nearest station to Ford for guests?
Guests can use Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, about 2.8 miles west of Ford.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Is a taco bar right for a wedding?
It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. We agree the timings with your venue, and guests build their own plates.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Who looks after the taco bar?
We set up and stay to keep the bar hot and stocked.
How much is a food truck for an event?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
Taco bar hire or something else?
Pizza is the usual crowd-pleaser, but a taco bar lets every guest design their own plate. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- We agree where the table goes and where our vehicle can unload.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
