For event organisers in Great Burgh
Organising a club, school or community event in Great Burgh? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we’ll suggest a plan.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Taco bar hire in Great Burgh, served fresh
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, as long as the venue agrees. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas, and it is a good fit for company parties and wedding meals.
In and around Great Burgh, a taco bar works beside the truck or in a hall nearby. Where access is tight, the truck stays nearby and the station goes where your guests are. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
