Taco bar hire in North Halling, from our truck or trailer
Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema. It works well for christenings and family parties and working lunches, with guacamole, fresh salsas and burrito bowls.
For a rural spot like North Halling, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan the service around your numbers.

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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
What taco bar hire costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- Whether you need disposables
- Guest numbers
- Distance and access to the venue
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What power and water the site has
- How we drive in and where we can park

North Halling questions
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like North Halling?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
Do you cater in villages like North Halling?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
How much does taco bar hire cost?
Every taco bar is quoted for individually, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. For a price, send us your details through our quote form.
Can you set up where a truck cannot get in?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear 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.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
