Taco bar hire near Great Horwood

Working with your venue

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

How our taco bar hire works in Great Horwood

For a bigger spread, burrito bowls, nachos or quesadillas can sit alongside the tacos. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too. We serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, warm corn and flour tortillas and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for birthday celebrations and family celebrations.

Near Great Horwood, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Great Horwood: your questions answered

How far is Great Horwood from London?

It is about 47 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St James?

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.

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.

How many guests can you serve?

It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.

Do you need power and water?

Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.

How much does taco bar hire cost in Great Horwood?

Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

Can the taco bar cater for special diets?

We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.

Can you keep it mild?

It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:

  • Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.

Our truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar, quoted with the rest.

Comparing your options

For a meal that is hands-on for guests but not for you, a taco bar is a strong choice for your event. 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.

How it works

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. In Great Horwood, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.

  1. Send us your date, where the taco bar will go, numbers and dietary needs.
  2. We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
  3. Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
  4. We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
  5. After the last tacos, we clear the station away.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
