Taco bar hire in Hurtmore, from our food truck or trailer
For a bigger spread, burrito bowls, nachos or quesadillas can sit alongside the tacos. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too. For garden parties and working lunches, we can serve guacamole, pickled onions and toppings and fresh salsas and more.
Near Hurtmore, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we will confirm power and water with you. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.
A wider range of salsas suits guests who like it mild and those who like it hot.
The process
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.
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.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not usually stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and guests build their own tacos. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
