Taco bar hire for Lower Froyle events
About our taco bar hire in Lower Froyle
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. Popular choices include slow-cooked fillings kept hot, warm corn and flour tortillas and guacamole, which works well for garden parties and family get-togethers.
Near Lower Froyle, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Ensure guests have somewhere to sit
- Count children separately
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.

What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The date and time of the event
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- The address or venue name
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote.
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Lower Froyle
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary of the Assumption?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Will you travel to a small place like Lower Froyle?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you come to a private house?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
How much is a taco bar?
We do not publish set prices, as each booking is different. Send us your details and we will quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Do you cook on site?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
