About our taco bar hire in Farthing Street

We bring taco bars to events in and around Farthing Street: marquees, barns, gardens, halls and workplaces, wherever there is room for the table. At engagement and anniversary parties and team lunches, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and guacamole.

London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Farthing Street have no vehicle access to the room. The station can go where the truck cannot, as long as the venue agrees, and the route from our parking spot to the station needs to be clear. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Farthing Street questions

Where would you park in Farthing Street?

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.

Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary's Church?

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.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.

How long are you on site?

We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.

Do you have vegan options?

Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.

How much is a taco bar?

We don’t publish set prices, as each booking is different. Share your plans and you’ll get a quote. See what Mexican catering costs for background.

Do you have gluten-free options?

Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.

Why choose taco bar hire in Farthing Street?

A taco bar and a truck serve the same food in different ways. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

What you get with us

  • A menu built around your guests
  • Every guest catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included
  • Everything served fresh from the hatch
  • A clear quote

See our prices page or what Mexican catering costs.

Space, access and the venue

Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:

  • A clear area in front of the station
  • Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
  • A level area for the taco-bar table

In Farthing Street, 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 photo and we will tell you honestly.

On the menu in Farthing Street

  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Pickled onions and toppings

What taco bar hire costs

Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Timings and hours
  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
  • How many guests we are serving
  • Staff for serving and the bar

A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Details that help

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Expected numbers
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. Just fill in our quote form.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Step by step

From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. Evenings in Farthing Street stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. Once it gets dark, guests need to see what they’re adding to their tacos.

  1. Begin with the date and headcount.
  2. We agree a menu that covers every diet.
  3. Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our station when service ends.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

How to get a price

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
