Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Whether you need disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- The length of service
- Food, drinks or both
Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

To check availability and price, we need:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
How our taco bar hire works in Blean
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, fresh salsas and pickled onions and toppings, and it is a good fit for staff parties and marquee parties.
Somewhere as small as Blean, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. 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. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Blean questions
How far is Blean from London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
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.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so you do not need helpers. We pack it away afterwards.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not usually stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Count children separately
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
