How our taco bar hire works in Farringdon
Truck and trailer bookings usually suit around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we’ll plan the taco bar around them. On the menu are burrito bowls, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas, and it’s a good fit for working lunches and barn parties.
From an office courtyard to a hired room, a taco bar in Farringdon needs space for a table and a queue. Tell us where we can stop to unload, and about stairs, lifts or narrow doors, as London parking takes planning. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Common questions in Farringdon
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John Clerkenwell?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Where would you park in Farringdon?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll recommend how to serve.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What taco bar hire costs
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Whether you need disposables
- Distance and access to the venue
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Your quote confirms the full price.
Details that help
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
Why choose taco bar hire in Farringdon?
Guests on special diets don’t need a separate meal, since corn tortillas and vegan fillings sit with everything else.
We can help if you’re planning any of the following:
- Milestone birthdays
- Wedding breakfasts
- Engagement and anniversary parties
- Barn and marquee parties
After a christening or wedding at a church such as St John Clerkenwell, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos.
Questions to ask before booking
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- Allergen information for each dish
- Any travel, parking or access charges
- A food hygiene rating you can check
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
