Taco bar hire near Somerley
Taco bar hire in Somerley, served fresh
Truck and trailer bookings typically suit around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the taco bar around them. It suits barn parties and evening receptions, serving slow-cooked fillings kept hot, guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a small place like Somerley, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. 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. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
