About our taco bar hire in Hornton
Fillings are agreed with you, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, with a vegan filling like black bean and sweet potato or spiced mushroom. For summer garden parties and wedding evening food, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and warm corn and flour tortillas and more.
In a small place like Hornton, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Why choose taco bar hire in Hornton?
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, and power and water are confirmed with each booking. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book with us
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Allergen information for every dish
Your questions about taco bar hire in Hornton
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St John the Baptist?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you cater in villages like Hornton?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, 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.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How does a taco bar work?
We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and each guest builds their own. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. From late May to late September, sunset in Hornton moves from about 9:00pm to 7:10pm. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Share a few details about the event.
- We send a sample spread and a quote.
- Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
- We set up the station and keep everything hot.
- At the end, we take everything away.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Find out what power and water are available
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
