Taco bar hire in Shurlock Row
About our taco bar hire in Shurlock Row
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, as long as the venue agrees. Popular choices include burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole, which works well for leaving dos and marquee parties.
Near Shurlock Row, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
