Taco bar hire near Lane End
Taco bar hire for your event in Lane End
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. If the truck can’t get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. On the menu are guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and burrito bowls, and it is a good fit for anniversary parties and marquee parties.
For a rural spot like Lane End, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How many staff you need
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Guest numbers
- Your choice of food and drinks
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Where the event is
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
