Taco bar hire in Upper Arncott

Taco bar hire for your event in Upper Arncott

We run the taco bar ourselves: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Your hosts can stay with their guests. Popular choices include slow-cooked fillings kept hot, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas, which works well for engagement and anniversary parties and leaving dos.

In a small place like Upper Arncott, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Prices and what affects them

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • The number of people
  • Whether you need disposables
  • The menu you choose
  • Distance and access to the venue

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Where the event is
  • What power and water the site has
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Questions from Upper Arncott

Is Upper Arncott close to London?

It is about 50 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?

Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. Tell us about the parking, the doors and the space for the station.

What guest numbers do you cater for?

That depends on your timings and the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.

Do you do parties at home?

Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space.

Do you have gluten-free options?

Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

How much is a food truck for an event?

We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.

What do you serve?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Popular choices

Toppings

The toppings are where guests make each taco their own.

Guacamole

  • Details of power and water near the bar
  • A level area for the taco-bar table
