Your questions about taco bar hire in Lashenden
What’s the nearest station to Lashenden for guests?
Headcorn station, about 1.8 miles north of the centre.
Do you cater in villages like Lashenden?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Do you do parties at home?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
That depends on your timings and the event. As a guide, our bookings usually fall around 50 to 400 guests.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
Fillings and toppings sit in separate dishes, which helps with mixed diets, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Do you come to Lashenden?
We do. Lashenden is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Taco bar hire in Lashenden, from our truck or trailer
Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, depending on the menu you choose. For birthday celebrations and team socials, we can serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and burrito bowls and more.
For a rural spot like Lashenden, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
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.

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.
