Taco bar hire for your event in Holmethorpe
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, as long as the venue agrees. At wedding breakfasts and engagement and anniversary parties, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas, pickled onions and toppings and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
Near Holmethorpe, a hall or club may suit a taco bar if your own space is tight; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.
Taco bar hire or something else?

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
How we price taco bar hire
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Whether you need disposables
- The number of people
- Staff for serving and the bar
There is 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.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of where we’d park
- The venue or postcode
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. To get started, use our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Send us allergy details in writing
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Add burrito bowls for guests who’d rather skip tortillas.
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
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.
Popular choices
Warm tortillas
Corn and flour tortillas, warmed through in batches so there is always one ready. Corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
Salsas
Fresh salsas, from a mild tomato salsa to something hotter, made for your event.
Your questions about taco bar hire in Holmethorpe
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Nutfield Marshes?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Are plates and napkins included?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
