Taco bar hire in Grove
About our taco bar hire in Grove
Our taco bar travels to events across Grove and the surrounding area: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices, wherever there’s room for the table. It suits leaving dos and milestone birthdays, with fresh salsas, burrito bowls and warm corn and flour tortillas.
Near Grove, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

What else we do in Grove
How the day works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. A December taco bar in Grove will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

Questions from Grove
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mildred?
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.
Is it possible to have you in Grove Ferry Picnic Area?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Fillings and toppings sit in separate dishes, which helps with mixed diets, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
How much is a taco bar?
There’s no price list, because no two events are the same. Share your plans and you will get a quote. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
Why choose taco bar hire in Grove?

Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
What we offer
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Salsas and guacamole

- Vegan fillings
- Tortilla chips
Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
- Send us allergy details in writing
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up, then load our vehicle.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.
