About our taco bar hire in Risinghurst
Fillings are agreed with you, such as pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. It suits barn parties and summer garden parties, with pickled onions and toppings, guacamole and fresh salsas.
For a place the size of Risinghurst, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Tell us where we can park and unload. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.
Where the truck can go in Risinghurst
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A level area for the taco-bar table

- Somewhere close by for our vehicle to park and unload
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
