Common questions in Banbury
What’s the nearest station to Banbury for guests?
Guests can use Banbury station, about 0.8 miles east of Banbury.
We are having a ceremony at Saint Paul's: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you keep it mild?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can you set up where a truck cannot get in?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Do you cover Banbury?
We do. Banbury is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
How our taco bar hire works in Banbury
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. Popular choices include fresh salsas, warm corn and flour tortillas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it suits barn and marquee parties and leaving dos.
In Banbury, a taco bar can be set up inside a hall or club, with the venue’s agreement. The station needs space, a route in from the parking area and room to queue. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Make sure guests have somewhere to sit
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
