Taco bar hire in Otterbourne
About our taco bar hire in Otterbourne
Toppings make the bar: pickled onions, coriander, lime, shredded lettuce and cheese, agreed with you in advance. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas, which works well for barn and marquee parties and garden parties.
Somewhere as small as Otterbourne, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.
Dietary needs and planning tips
We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
If the schedule slips, tell us and we’ll hold everything hot until you’re ready.
For larger groups, ask about a second serving point, quoted for your event.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- The number of people
- Parking and the route in
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The date and time of the event
- The address or venue name
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

Common questions in Otterbourne
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Otterbourne?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Do you come out to small places like Otterbourne?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Space, access and the venue
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you. The main points are:
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you’re booking both
- Room for guests to queue along the table
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
