Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
About our taco bar hire in Laddingford
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too, with licensing checked with you. On the menu are burrito bowls, warm corn and flour tortillas and a build-your-own taco bar, and it is a good fit for engagement parties and wedding day food.
In a small place like Laddingford, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.
What taco bar hire costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Timings and hours
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Parking and the route in
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

Diets, allergies and planning
Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To make it work smoothly:

- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.
Questions from Laddingford
Will you travel to a small place like Laddingford?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
What do you need at the venue?
Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
We can. We offer dairy-free options.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
How does taco bar hire work?
We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and guests build their own tacos. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
How it works
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Evenings in Laddingford stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm. Once it gets dark, guests need to see what they’re adding to their tacos.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Before we arrive
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Popular choices
Toppings
Lime, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, agreed with you.
Guacamole
No taco bar is complete without guacamole, so we keep it topped up.
