How our taco bar hire works in Margery
For a bigger spread, burrito bowls, nachos or quesadillas can sit alongside the tacos. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added. It suits garden parties and birthday celebrations, serving fresh salsas, pickled onions and toppings and burrito bowls.
Near Margery, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
What’s on the menu
Salsas
Fresh salsas, from a mild tomato salsa to something hotter, made for your event.
Toppings
Lime, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema.

Margery: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not 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.
Do you come to events in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Is the taco bar staffed?
We run the station ourselves, so you don’t need helpers. We pack it away afterwards.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Is a taco bar right for a wedding?
It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. We agree the timings with your venue.
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, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Working with your venue
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
What affects the price in Margery
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How long we’re needed on site
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The date and time of the event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers

Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Somewhere close by for our vehicle to park and unload

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Is taco bar hire right for your event?
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar caters for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free guests from one table. 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.

Staff stay at the taco bar to refill bowls and answer questions about fillings and allergens.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
