Taco bar hire for your event in Waterside

The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Building your own is quick, which keeps the line moving. It works well for staff parties and barn parties, with warm corn and flour tortillas, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole.

Near Waterside, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Organising for someone else?

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

FAQs for Waterside

Can you cater a reception after a service at Christ Church?

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.

Do you come out to small places like Waterside?

Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.

What happens if it rains?

We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.

What do you serve?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.

What is a build-your-own taco bar?

Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.

Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?

Fillings and toppings sit in separate dishes, which helps with mixed diets, though we can’t guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

What about power on site?

Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Is the food suitable for children?

Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.

Step by step

Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. From late May to late September, sunset in Waterside moves from about 8:55pm to 7:05pm. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. Together we choose what goes on the bar.
  3. The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
  4. Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
  5. When everyone has eaten, we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Travel, parking and access
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • How long we are needed on site

Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.

  • The venue or postcode
  • Expected numbers
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • What you’d like on the menu

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.

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

Perfect for your event in Waterside

It looks generous: bright salsas, fresh guacamole and bowls of toppings in a row make an easy centrepiece.

Whatever you are celebrating in Waterside, our food truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We’re happy to cater:

  • Summer garden parties
  • Wedding meals
  • Family celebrations

Questions to ask before you book

  • The deposit and payment dates
  • Allergen information for each dish
  • How long the service runs
  • Exactly what’s included in the price

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
  • Space for a serving table on level ground
  • Power and water, which we confirm when you book

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Popular choices

  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Two to four fillings
  • Tortilla chips
  • Vegan fillings
  • Salsas and guacamole
