Taco bar hire for your event in Swalcliffe
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, with the venue’s agreement. For barn parties and birthday parties, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and burrito bowls and more.
For a rural spot like Swalcliffe, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
- A level area for the taco-bar table
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Swalcliffe: your questions answered
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
What should the venue provide?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. We fit it around your speeches and photos. There’s more in our taco bar guide.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
We arrive with time to unload and set the bar up before guests eat.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
What taco bar hire costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How many guests we’re serving
- How long we’re needed on site
- What the venue already provides
- How many staff you need
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many adults and children

- The date and time of the event
