Taco bar hire near Upton
Planners, venues and businesses
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
How our taco bar hire works in Upton
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Your hosts can stay with their guests. On the menu are a build-your-own taco bar, burrito bowls and pickled onions and toppings, and it’s a good fit for evening wedding receptions and family get-togethers.
In a hamlet or village like Upton, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- Details of power and water near the bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
What we offer
- Tortilla chips
- Salsas and guacamole
- Vegan fillings
- Two to four fillings

Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
- Count children separately
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.
Comparing your options
Buffet trays can go cold and tired. We keep the fillings hot and refill the dishes through service. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
