Taco bar hire in East Lockinge
About our taco bar hire in East Lockinge
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. We serve warm corn and flour tortillas, guacamole and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it suits working lunches and retirement parties.
Near East Lockinge, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

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.

How far is East Lockinge from London?
About 56 miles from central London.
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near East Lockinge?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.

Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.

Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
How does a taco bar work?
A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests build their own tacos. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.

We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
