DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Taco bar hire in Wittensford, from our food truck or trailer
Our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we’ll plan the taco bar around them. It suits barn parties and staff parties, serving a build-your-own taco bar, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and warm corn and flour tortillas.
In a small place like Wittensford, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
Why choose taco bar hire in Wittensford?
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, and power and water are confirmed with each booking. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
Why book with us
- A quote that sets out what’s included

Your questions about taco bar hire in Wittensford
Do you cater in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you cater in villages like Wittensford?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue, and guests build their own plates.
What if the weather’s bad?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes through service.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you set up where a truck can’t get in?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
