Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Check where our vehicle can unload
Fillings are kept hot and tortillas warmed in batches, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.
Nachos to share can keep guests going before the bar opens.
About our taco bar hire in Shere
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. On the menu are guacamole, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar, and it suits garden parties and company parties.
Somewhere as small as Shere, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
What’s on the menu
Vegan fillings
Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own, not an afterthought.
Warm tortillas
Every taco starts with a warm tortilla. We warm them as the bar needs them.

FAQs for Shere
Will you travel to a small place like Shere?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for instance a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

Before you plan a taco bar in Colekitchen Down, find out who manages it, as catering and unloading there both need their agreement. After a christening or wedding at a church such as The Church of St James, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos.

Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go.
