Planning an event in Knightwood?
Working with your venue
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Taco bar hire in Knightwood, from our truck or trailer
The bar can stand beside our food truck or trailer, or on its own. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, as long as the venue agrees. For summer garden parties and wedding day food, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
For a place the size of Knightwood, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and guests build their own tacos. Let us know about the drive and parking. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
