How our taco bar hire works in Langley Vale
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. At leaving and retirement parties and company parties, we will put together a menu of guacamole, burrito bowls and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Langley Vale, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Langley Vale: venues, access and set-up
Langley Vale is about 2 miles east of Ashtead, in Surrey. Whether your event is in the middle of Langley Vale or on the outskirts, taco bar hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in all 395 towns and villages across Surrey. Our nearest city page is Croydon, about 8 miles away.
If you are celebrating after a service at a church like St Stephen On The Downs, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. If people are travelling in by rail, Tattenham Corner station is about 1 mile away. With the Surrey Hills National Landscape about 5 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Langley Vale. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.

Langley Vale questions
Do you come out to small places like Langley Vale?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
We are having a ceremony at St Stephen On The Downs: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
How does taco bar hire work?
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.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. Timings are agreed in advance so everything fits your schedule.
Can you do gluten-free food?
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. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Can you serve in the rain?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, Surrey included. See all areas.
The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit.
