Taco bar hire for your event in Shabbington
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. Where a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. On the menu are guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas, and it suits milestone birthdays and garden parties.
In a hamlet or village like Shabbington, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
The menu, item by item
Vegan fillings
Spiced mushroom, or black bean and sweet potato.
Hot fillings
You might choose two or three fillings, with at least one vegan. You choose them with us.
Comparing your options
Sandwich platters are convenient but forgettable. Warm tortillas and hot fillings give a lunch more to talk about. There is no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What we offer in Shabbington
- Menus for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
