Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Ensure guests have somewhere to sit
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Make sure one filling is vegan
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we will set out the options in your quote.
How our taco bar hire works in Hogben's Hill
Taco bars suit wedding breakfasts, parties and office lunches alike. Building your own is quick, which keeps the line moving. We serve warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, which works well for engagement parties and office lunches.
In a hamlet or village like Hogben's Hill, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it; tell us about access and parking. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

How we price taco bar hire
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Guest numbers
- What the venue already provides
- Timings and hours
- Serving staff
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

- Any dietary needs and allergies

Common questions in Hogben's Hill
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Hogben's Hill?
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.
What’s the nearest station to Hogben's Hill for guests?
The closest is Selling station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
What do you need at the venue?
Tell us about the venue and the spot you have in mind, and we’ll check it works. We also need the venue’s permission.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, though we can’t guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.

The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

Can I do a taco night myself?
