Taco bar hire for your event in Clayton

With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. On the menu are slow-cooked fillings kept hot, pickled onions and toppings and fresh salsas, which works well for birthday celebrations and back-garden gatherings.

Somewhere as small as Clayton, 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, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

Clayton questions

How far is Clayton from London?

About 41 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Do you cater in villages like Clayton?

Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.

How much does taco bar hire cost in Clayton?

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.

What guest numbers do you cater for?

That depends on your timings and the event. As a guide, our bookings typically fall around 50 to 400 guests.

Can the taco bar cater for special diets?

Fillings and toppings sit in separate dishes, which helps with mixed diets, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

What if a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot?

The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.

What food and drinks do you offer?

We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Catering for every guest

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To get it right:

Include a vegan filling on the bar
Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
Tell us how many children are coming
Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP

If the schedule slips, tell us and we’ll hold everything hot until you’re ready.

For larger groups, ask about a second serving point.

Comparing your options

A standard buffet often sits out cold. Our fillings stay hot and the bowls are topped up as guests come back. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.

For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.

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.

Occasions we cater for in Clayton

Everyone builds a plate that suits them, so there are fewer special requests.

Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:

Around Clayton, historic houses include Preston Manor & Gardens (4.7 miles south). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload.
