Taco bar hire for Knatts Valley events
About our taco bar hire in Knatts Valley
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. At family celebrations and leaving dos, we’ll put together a menu of pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and guacamole.
In a hamlet or village like Knatts Valley, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain does not generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Knatts Valley, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is normally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
