DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Taco bar hire in North Crawley, from our truck or trailer
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. It works well for leaving and retirement parties and evening wedding receptions, with a build-your-own taco bar, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and pickled onions and toppings.
Near North Crawley, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we will confirm power and water with you. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

How it works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. In North Crawley, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.

Your questions about taco bar hire in North Crawley
How far is North Crawley from London?
It’s about 47 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Firmin?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Is the taco bar staffed?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes through service.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.
What if a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot?
The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. Either way, we need to unload nearby and have the venue’s permission.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
What’s on the menu
Vegan fillings
Black bean and sweet potato, or spiced mushrooms, cooked separately.
Toppings
Lime, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema.
