Taco bar hire for your event in Trench Green
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Building your own is quick, which keeps the line moving, and nobody waits long. Popular choices include fresh salsas, guacamole and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for evening wedding receptions and wedding meals.
In a small place like Trench Green, 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, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Comparing your options
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. A taco bar needs a serving spot, somewhere close to unload and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed when you book. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
What you get with us
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Menus for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests

Questions from Trench Green
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Margaret and Bardolf Aisle?
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.
How far is Trench Green from London?
It is about 40 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes.
How much is a taco bar?
We do not publish set prices, as each booking is different. Send us your details and we will quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.

Salsas
Fresh salsas, from a mild tomato salsa to something hotter, made for your event.

Events we cater in Trench Green
It looks generous: salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out together.
We can help if you are planning any of the following:
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- Back-garden gatherings
- Family celebrations
- Working lunches
After a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Margaret and Bardolf Aisle, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos.
Before you book anyone
- How bad weather is handled
- The venue requirements
- Travel and parking costs
- How late numbers can change
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
- A flat spot for the taco-bar station
- Permission from the venue for us to set up
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Menu ideas
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Vegan fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Salsas and guacamole
- Two to four fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
