Taco bar hire near Temple Ewell
Taco bar hire in Temple Ewell, served fresh
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, as long as the venue agrees. At leaving and retirement parties and garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of guacamole, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot and more.
For a rural spot like Temple Ewell, 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 will confirm power and water with you. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
What’s on the menu
Toppings
The toppings are where guests make each taco their own, and dairy-free choices are kept apart.
Warm tortillas
Corn and flour tortillas, warmed through in batches. Corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.
How we price taco bar hire
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The menu you choose
- Serving staff
- How many guests we are serving
- Whether you need disposables
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What power and water the site has
- Expected numbers
- The address or venue name
Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
Questions from Temple Ewell
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul?
Yes. The church itself is not 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.
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Temple Ewell?
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.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
Our service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the bar around them.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both
- Room for guests to queue along the table
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Why choose taco bar hire in Temple Ewell?

Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. Around midsummer it stays light in Temple Ewell until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is generally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
