Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
About our taco bar hire in Headley
Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, depending on the menu you choose. At wedding meals and working lunches, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls for your guests.
Near Headley, 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 confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Common questions in Headley
Do you come to events in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Headley?
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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
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.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
How spicy is the food?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Tell us when guests should eat

If the schedule slips, tell us and we’ll hold everything hot until you are ready.
