Taco bar hire in Laughton, served fresh
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. For company parties and family celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and warm corn and flour tortillas.
Near Laughton, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Laughton
Do you cater in villages like Laughton?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
What’s the nearest station to Laughton for guests?
The closest is Glynde station, roughly 3.9 miles away.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
We set up and stay to keep the bar hot and stocked through service.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
It depends on the event and the timings. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How it works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Winter evenings in Laughton close in by about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, how many guests and any diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
- When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.
How to prepare
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Planning help
Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

How we price taco bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How many guests we’re serving
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- The length of service
- Travel, parking and access
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- Your menu ideas
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Roughly how many adults and children
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
We get there early enough to unload, lay out the table and heat everything through.
For larger groups, ask about a second serving point.
