Taco bar hire in Mud Row, from our truck or trailer
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too. On the menu are a build-your-own taco bar, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and guacamole, and it suits milestone birthdays and barn parties.
Near Mud Row, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
Comparing your options
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the taco bar, guests do the building. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Why us?
- Service planned around your numbers
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- A clear quote
- A menu built around your guests

Mud Row questions
We are having a ceremony at Church of All Saints: 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 will check the access.
Do you come out to small places like Mud Row?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
How does a taco bar work?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
