Taco bar hire for Lampton events
Taco bar hire or something else?
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. 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.

- Allergen-aware menus
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Options for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
- Menus chosen with you

How our taco bar hire works in Lampton
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: tortillas kept warm, fillings kept hot, and bowls of salsa, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. For evening wedding receptions and barn and marquee parties, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Lampton 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Questions from Lampton
Is it possible to have you in Inwood Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Is parking a problem for events in Lampton?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
How much does taco bar hire cost in Lampton?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
What does a taco bar cost?
Every taco bar is quoted for individually, based on numbers, fillings, the venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
- Send us allergy details in writing
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.
Nachos to share can keep guests going before the bar opens.
How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and serve without fuss. In Lampton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is usually served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- We clear our station when service ends.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

What affects the price in Lampton
These are the factors that matter most:
- What the venue already provides
- How long we are needed on site
- What’s on the menu
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The address or venue name
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Expected numbers
- What power and water the site has
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
What’s on the menu
Salsas
A row of salsas, mild to hot.

Planners, venues and businesses
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Lampton? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
- Room for guests to queue along the table
- The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
In Lampton, 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.
