Taco bar hire or something else?
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar caters for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free guests from one table. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- A clear area in front of the station
Spring Vale is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Menu ideas
- Salsas and guacamole
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Vegan fillings
Planning for every diet
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Ensure guests have somewhere to sit
- Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
Taco bars for events around Spring Vale
Spring Vale is about 2 miles east of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. Tell us where your event in Spring Vale will be, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up before the day.

Historic houses near Spring Vale include Nunwell House (3.2 miles south-west) and Morton Manor (3.6 miles south). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our truck or trailer parks further off. Guests arriving without a car will want to know that the nearest station is Ryde St Johns Road station, about 1.4 miles west. With the sea within about 2 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze do not mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.

Common questions in Spring Vale
Which station is closest to Spring Vale?
Guests can use Ryde St Johns Road station, about 1.4 miles west of Spring Vale.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
Our service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the bar to suit.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so you do not need helpers. When service ends, we clear it away.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
