Taco bar hire in Great Shefford
Taco bar hire in Great Shefford, from our food truck or trailer
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. On the menu are slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas, and it suits christenings and family parties and leaving dos.
For a rural spot like Great Shefford, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Common questions in Great Shefford
How far is Great Shefford from London?
It’s about 58 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
We’re 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. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
How does taco bar hire work?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
How much is a taco bar?
There’s no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
What should the venue provide?
Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we will check it works. The venue’s agreement is needed too.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
