Taco bar hire in Little Bookham, served fresh
Our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we will size the taco bar to match. It works well for wedding evening food and christenings and family parties, with pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and guacamole.
For a place the size of Little Bookham, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Tell us where we can park and unload. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Common questions in Little Bookham
Is Little Bookham close to London?
Roughly 20 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Lawrence?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes through service.
Is a taco bar suitable for a big group?
It depends on the event and the timings. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
Comparing your options
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. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.

Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:

After the last plate, we take the bar down and leave the spot tidy.
Nachos to share can keep guests going before the bar opens.
