Taco bar hire in North Looe
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s 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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
How our taco bar hire works in North Looe
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. On the menu are burrito bowls, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and warm corn and flour tortillas, and it suits wedding meals and barn parties.
Near North Looe, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. You will know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Taco bar hire or something else?
A sandwich platter is easy to order but rarely remembered. A hot taco bar gives guests something to gather round. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
