Taco bar hire for your event in Sandwich
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck can’t get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, with the venue’s agreement. It works well for birthday parties and wedding day food, with warm corn and flour tortillas, pickled onions and toppings and a build-your-own taco bar.
Near Sandwich, a hall or club may suit a taco bar if your own space is tight; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Winter evenings in Sandwich close in by about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

Sandwich: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Sandwich United Reformed Church?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Could you come to a seaside event near Sandwich?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
What if a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot?
It can go beside the truck or trailer, or somewhere a vehicle can’t reach. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.
What should the venue provide?
Tell us about the venue and the spot you have in mind, and we’ll check it works. The venue’s agreement is needed too.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and each guest builds their own. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.
