Taco bar hire in Tilehurst Within, served fresh

With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. For wedding day food and evening receptions, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.

A place like Tilehurst Within may have a hall or a club nearby if your garden is small; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Tilehurst Within questions

How far is Tilehurst Within from London?

About 40 miles from central London, and we cover it.

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Michael?

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. Send us the reception address.

Can you run a bar?

Yes, we do. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we will check the licensing with you and your venue.

What’s on the menu?

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.

How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?

Fillings and toppings sit in separate dishes, which helps with mixed diets, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.

Do you have dairy-free options?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.

What guest numbers do you cater for?

Our service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Share your headcount and we will size the bar to suit.

Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?

We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.

What taco bar hire costs

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • How long we are needed on site
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • What’s on the menu

Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

Getting an accurate quote

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and you will get menu ideas and a price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Working with your venue

If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

Popular choices

Warm tortillas

Every taco starts with a warm tortilla. We warm them as the bar needs them.

Hot fillings

You might choose two or three fillings, including a vegan one. We agree them with you.

Catering for every guest

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Check where our vehicle can unload
  • Collect dietary needs with your replies
  • Ensure guests have somewhere to sit

A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains.

Book our drinks bar with the taco bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.

Comparing your options

Compared with a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar caters for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free guests from one table. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Why us?

  • Book food, drinks or both
  • Access, space and power checked in advance
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
  • Allergen information for every dish

See how we price or our guide to catering costs.

Should I do it myself?

Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
