In a small place like Up Somborne, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk.

Up Somborne: your questions answered
How far is Up Somborne from London?
It is about 64 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Up Somborne?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Do you cover Up Somborne?
Yes, we do. Up Somborne is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will suggest the best set-up.
How long are you on site?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
How much is a taco bar?
We quote for each taco bar, based on numbers, fillings, the venue and timings. For a price, send a quick message through our quote form.
What space does a taco bar need?
Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we’ll confirm what’s needed. The venue’s agreement is needed too.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t usually stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What’s on the menu
Guacamole
Freshly made guacamole with lime.
Vegan fillings
Black bean and sweet potato, or spiced mushrooms, cooked separately.
For planners, venues and organisers
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Why choose taco bar hire in Up Somborne?
The bar can go where a vehicle can’t, like a barn, courtyard or hall, if the venue agrees.
A truck or trailer works for big and small events alike. Common bookings include:
- Christenings and family parties
- Summer garden parties
- Office lunches
- Staff parties
After a christening or wedding at a church such as All Saints Church, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos.
What your quote should include
- How dietary needs and allergies are handled
- Who provides plates and napkins
- Any travel, parking or access charges
- Staff numbers and hours

Other catering in Up Somborne
Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
Staff stay at the taco bar to refill bowls and answer questions.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. 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. See our margarita bar guide.
Comparing your options
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. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
Why us?
- Service planned around your numbers
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Served fresh from our truck or trailer
See our prices page or the cost guide.
