Guests can use Botley station, about 4.7 miles south-west of The Hangers.
Do you cater in villages like The Hangers?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Can you keep it mild?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
What does taco bar hire cost?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you cater in The Hangers?
Yes, we do. The Hangers is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you have gluten-free options?
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.
Taco bar hire in The Hangers, served fresh
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily. For team socials and back-garden gatherings, we will put together a menu of slow-cooked fillings kept hot, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls.
Near The Hangers, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
- Space for a line of guests at the bar
- The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Menu ideas
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Tortilla chips
- Two to four fillings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
What’s on the menu

Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains.
Nachos to share can keep guests going before the bar opens.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Why choose taco bar hire in The Hangers?
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen, waiting staff and fixed courses. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
