Taco bar hire in Shepperton, from our food truck or trailer
Our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the taco bar to match. It works well for wedding evening food and christenings and family parties, serving pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and warm corn and flour tortillas.
In a smaller place like Shepperton, a taco bar in your garden or a local hall keeps things simple. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Tell us where we can park and unload. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Should I do it myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

FAQs for Shepperton
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Is Shepperton close to London?
Roughly 17 miles from the centre of London.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
It depends on the event and the timings. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
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.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
The menu, item by item
Hot fillings
A few fillings give guests plenty of choice, with at least one vegan. You choose them with us.
Guacamole
No taco bar is complete without guacamole.
Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Travel, parking and access
- The number of people
- The menu you choose
- How many staff you need
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- What power and water the site has
- Your menu ideas
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
To get a price, just tell us about it on our contact page. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
What we offer
- Salsas and guacamole
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Vegan fillings
How the day works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. In Shepperton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is normally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We agree a menu that covers every diet.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
