Taco bar hire for Shermanbury events
About our taco bar hire in Shermanbury
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. It suits family get-togethers and leaving and retirement parties, serving warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a small place like Shermanbury, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

What taco bar hire costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The menu you choose
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Travel, parking and access
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- How we drive in and where we can park

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you’re ready, send a quick message through our quote form.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Diets, allergies and planning
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Check where our vehicle can unload
- Put allergies in writing for us
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather.
For larger groups, ask about a second serving point.
Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you’re booking both
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Menu ideas
- Tortilla chips
- Two to four fillings
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas

Shermanbury: your questions answered
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Do you cater in villages like Shermanbury?
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 guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue, and guests build their own plates.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: 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 if a vehicle cannot 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.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
