Taco bar hire for Highfield events

Taco bar hire in Highfield, from our food truck or trailer

The bar can stand beside our food truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck can’t get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, with the venue’s agreement. For leaving and retirement parties and wedding day food, we can serve warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and fresh salsas.

For a place the size of Highfield, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Let us know about the drive and parking. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Taco bars for events around Highfield

How to compare caterers

The menu, item by item

Salsas

Salsa lets everyone pick their own heat.

Hot fillings

Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, such as carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Planning the serving area

No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Space for a line of guests at the bar
  • A sheltered spot if we’re serving outside
  • A level area for the taco-bar table

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Popular choices

  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Tortilla chips
  • Two to four fillings
  • Salsas and guacamole
  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Vegan fillings

Dietary needs and planning tips

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:

  • Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
  • Confirm any allergies to us by email
  • Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
  • Collect dietary needs with your replies

Fillings are kept hot and tortillas warmed in batches.

For larger groups, ask about a second serving point.

Common questions in Highfield

How far is Highfield from central London?

It is about 69 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Which station should guests use for Highfield?

St Denys station, about 0.8 miles south-east of the centre.

Can you come to a private house?

That depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.

Is a taco bar suitable for a big group?

It depends on the event and the timings. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests.

What about power on site?

That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.

How much is a taco bar?

We quote for each taco bar, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.

Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?

It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue, and guests build their own plates.

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

The process

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. A December taco bar in Highfield will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.

  1. Share a few details about the event.
  2. We send a sample spread and a quote.
  3. Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
  4. We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
  5. At the end, we take everything away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
