Taco bar hire near Rhodes Minnis
FAQs for Rhodes Minnis
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Rhodes Minnis?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
Could you come to a seaside event near Rhodes Minnis?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots usually need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
How much does taco bar hire cost in Rhodes Minnis?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so your hosts do not need to. When service ends, we clear it away.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How much is a taco bar?
There’s no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we will quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
