Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.

Is taco bar hire right for your event?
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the taco bar, guests do the building. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What we offer in Hearnden Green
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Everything served fresh from the hatch

Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
Staff stay at the taco bar to refill bowls and answer questions about fillings and allergens.
Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
