Taco bar hire for your event in Mid Lavant
We run the taco bar ourselves: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. On the menu are warm corn and flour tortillas, guacamole and burrito bowls, and it suits engagement parties and marquee parties.
In a hamlet or village like Mid Lavant, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

Why choose taco bar hire in Mid Lavant?
It gets people talking: people chat about salsas and fillings while they build.
In Mid Lavant and nearby, we can cater all sorts of events. Some of the most common are:
- Anniversary parties
- Wedding meals
- Leaving dos
- Barn parties
Guests leaving a church like Church of St Nicholas could head to a nearby hall or garden where the taco bar is ready.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the caterer needs from your venue
- VAT, if it applies
- The deadline for final numbers
- A food hygiene rating you can check
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Ensure one filling is vegan
- Decide where the table goes before the day
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Book the truck or trailer for evening food after a daytime taco bar, quoted with the rest.
