Taco bar hire near Sutton Scotney
The process
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A December taco bar in Sutton Scotney will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We agree a menu that covers every diet.
- Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want service to start

Planning for every diet
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
After the last plate, we take the bar down, then load our vehicle.
Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.
Organising for someone else?
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Throwing a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
Should I do it myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Your questions about taco bar hire in Sutton Scotney
Do you cater in villages like Sutton Scotney?
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.
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Sutton Scotney?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.

What do you need at the venue?
Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we will confirm what’s needed. The venue’s agreement is needed too.
