Taco bar hire in Mereworth
Taco bar hire for your event in Mereworth
Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, agreed with you in advance. It works well for leaving and retirement parties and milestone birthdays, serving pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and warm corn and flour tortillas.
Near Mereworth, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it; tell us about access and parking. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Daylight in Mereworth runs to about 8:50pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.

Common questions in Mereworth
Will you travel to a small place like Mereworth?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Lawrence's Church?
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 cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
What does taco bar hire cost?
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.

What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Diets, allergies and planning
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To get it right:
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Choose at least one vegan filling

We get there early enough to unload, lay out the table and heat everything through.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
Should I do it myself?
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’ll do the serving.
