Planning an event in Rowly?
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
About our taco bar hire in Rowly
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. It suits birthday celebrations and marquee parties, serving burrito bowls, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas.
Near Rowly, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Rowly
Is it possible to have you in Cucknell's Wood?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Rowly?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. Tell us about the parking, the doors and the space for the station.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
That depends on your timings and the event. As a guide, our bookings generally fall around 50 to 400 guests.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
Can you keep it mild?
It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we will park.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
- Set out seating near the bar
- Give us separate numbers for children
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather.
Add burrito bowls for guests who’d rather skip tortillas.
Taco bar hire or something else?
A standard buffet often sits out cold. Our fillings stay hot and the bowls are topped up as guests come back. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
