Taco bar hire near Shottermill
About our taco bar hire in Shottermill
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. At barn parties and company parties, we can serve fresh salsas, guacamole and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.
Near Shottermill, 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. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.
FAQs for Shottermill
Do you cater in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St. Stephen's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will talk it through.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it is a good fit.

Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
