Taco bar hire for your event in South Town
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. It suits team socials and wedding evening food, serving a build-your-own taco bar, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and burrito bowls.

South Town questions
Do you cater in villages like South Town?
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.

It’s about 49 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What areas do you cover?

Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. We fit it around your speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
Fillings and toppings sit in separate dishes, which helps with mixed diets, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
Can you set up where a truck cannot get in?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Put allergies in writing for us
Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
The menu, item by item
Vegan fillings
Spiced mushroom, or black bean and sweet potato.
