Taco bar hire for your event in Stuppington
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added, with licensing checked with you. At leaving dos and working lunches, we can serve fresh salsas, guacamole and burrito bowls.
For a rural spot like Stuppington, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.
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.

We arrive with time to unload and set the bar up before guests eat.
