Taco bar hire in West End, from our food truck or trailer
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. On the menu are burrito bowls, guacamole and pickled onions and toppings, and it is a good fit for anniversary parties and leaving dos.
For a rural spot like West End, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

West End questions
Which station is closest to West End?
Guests can use Chestfield & Swalecliffe station, about 1.3 miles north-west of West End.

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.

Send us details of the venue and where you’d like the bar, and we’ll check it works. The venue’s agreement is needed too.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.

It depends on the event and the timings. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests.
