Taco bar hire for your event in Marden Thorn
Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, burrito bowls and fresh salsas, and it suits garden parties and company parties.
Near Marden Thorn, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
How the day works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. A December taco bar in Marden Thorn will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.
