How our taco bar hire works in Tangley
Our taco bar travels to events across Tangley and the surrounding area: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices, wherever there is room for the table. It suits evening receptions and birthday parties, serving pickled onions and toppings, warm corn and flour tortillas and guacamole.
In a small place like Tangley, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
About the menu
Vegan fillings
A vegan filling sits on the bar with the rest, not an afterthought.

Salsa lets everyone pick their own heat.
FAQs for Tangley
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Thomas of Canterbury: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station should guests use for Tangley?
The closest is Andover station, roughly 4.6 miles away.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.

London and South East England: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Tangley.

How it compares
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. From the truck, we put each order together; at the taco bar, guests do the building. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Step by step
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. In Tangley, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is generally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
How to prepare
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
