Organising for someone else?
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

Taco bar hire in Crofton, served fresh
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Your hosts can stay with their guests. It suits christenings and family parties and engagement parties, with guacamole, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and burrito bowls.
In a London neighbourhood like Crofton, a taco bar is handy when the truck can’t reach the garden or the room. Our staff set up a serving station on a table, and guests build their own tacos. We still need to park and unload close by, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension. Like all of Greater London, Crofton is inside the ULEZ. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Space, access and the venue
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Space for a serving table on level ground
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
In Crofton, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Taco bar hire or something else?
A sandwich platter is easy to order but rarely remembered. Warm tortillas and hot fillings give a lunch more to talk about. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.

How we price taco bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The number of people
- How many staff you need
- What the venue already provides
- Timings and hours
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.

Taco bar hire in Crofton: local tips
Crofton is about 1 mile south-west of Orpington, in Greater London. Wherever your event is in the BR6 area, we can serve your guests, as long as there is access. Crofton is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. You can also see our page for Croydon, about 8 miles away.
After a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos. By rail: Orpington station is in Crofton itself. With the Kent Downs National Landscape about 6 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Crofton. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.
This part of Greater London takes in BR6 and BR5. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Grange Road, Reed Avenue and Gumping Road or the roads around them. We also serve at events in Broom Hill (1 mile north-east), Locksbottom (1 mile west), Petts Wood (1 mile north), Farnborough (1 mile south) and Green Street Green (2 miles south).

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
The process
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. From late May to late September, sunset in Crofton moves from about 8:50pm to 7:05pm. Let us know if an outdoor station will run after dark, and we’ll talk about lighting.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
Getting ready for the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
Ask for a quote
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Crofton: your questions answered
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is it possible to have you in Jubilee Country Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Can you set up where a truck can’t get in?
The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. Either way, we need to unload nearby and have the venue’s permission.
How does taco bar hire work?
Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
Is a taco bar right for a wedding?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. Service is timed around speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
