Taco bar hire in Heathrow
How our taco bar hire works in Heathrow
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. It works well for staff parties and marquee parties, serving fresh salsas, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
Somewhere as small as Heathrow, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Common questions in Heathrow
How far is Heathrow from central London?
Roughly 16 miles from the centre of London.
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Heathrow?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Is a taco bar right for a wedding?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. We fit it around your speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
What do you need at the venue?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and each guest builds their own. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.
What does taco bar hire cost?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
The menu, item by item
Hot fillings
Fillings cooked ahead and kept hot, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.

How the day works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. Winter evenings in Heathrow close in by about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, how many guests and any diets.
- We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
- We agree where the table goes and where our vehicle can unload.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
- When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.
Before we arrive
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
How to get a price
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
