Taco bar hire for your event in Lunsford
Our taco bar travels to events across Lunsford and the surrounding area: marquees, barns, gardens, halls and workplaces, wherever there’s room for the table. We serve warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar, and it is a good fit for anniversary parties and summer garden parties.
Around Lunsford, a taco bar can stand beside our truck on a drive or lawn. If the truck cannot reach the garden, we park as close as we can and set the station up where your guests are. You will know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Guests add as much heat as they like.
