Taco bar hire in Great Milton
Questions from Great Milton
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Great Milton?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
How much does taco bar hire cost?
We don’t publish set prices, as each booking is different. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can you do gluten-free food?
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.
How our taco bar hire works in Great Milton
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too. For team lunches and wedding meals, we’ll put together a menu of guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and a build-your-own taco bar for your guests.
In a small place like Great Milton, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

The menu, item by item
Warm tortillas
Tortillas are the base of the bar. We warm them as the bar needs them through service.
Hot fillings
Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
Staff stay at the taco bar to refill bowls and answer questions about fillings and allergens.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.
Events we cater in Great Milton
Guests on special diets don’t need a separate meal, since corn tortillas and vegan fillings sit with everything else.

Great Milton: venues, access and set-up
Great Milton is about 5 miles west of Thame, in Oxfordshire. We cater events at gardens, halls and venues around Great Milton and the surrounding area. Great Milton is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. We cater right across the region, from Great Milton to Oxford (7 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Mary, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. With the Chilterns National Landscape about 8 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Great Milton. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.
Here we cover the OX44 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. From Church Road, Fullers Field and Green Hitchings or a nearby road, we will plan where to park and serve. For events just outside Great Milton, we cover Great Haseley (1 mile south-east), Milton Common (1 mile east), Tiddington (2 miles north-east), Albury (2 miles north-east) and Draycott (2 miles north-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Oxford (7 miles west), Didcot (10 miles south-west), Bicester (13 miles north), Abingdon-on-Thames (9 miles west), Thame (5 miles east) and Henley-on-Thames (15 miles south-east).

- Nearby, you’ll find The Bell Inn (within half a mile south-west)
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
- Permission from the venue for us to set up
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
