Taco bar hire for your event in Blackbird Leys
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, with the venue’s agreement. For engagement and anniversary parties and office lunches, we can serve warm corn and flour tortillas, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole and more.
Around Blackbird Leys, a taco bar can stand beside our truck on a drive or lawn. If the truck cannot reach the garden, we park as close as we can and set the station up where your guests are. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Around midsummer it stays light in Blackbird Leys until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- Somewhere close by for our vehicle to park and unload
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
What we offer
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Tortilla chips
- Salsas and guacamole
