Taco bar hire in Loughton

Taco bar hire in Loughton, from our food truck or trailer

Toppings make the bar: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, depending on the menu you choose. It works well for barn and marquee parties and milestone birthdays, with burrito bowls, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.

Around Loughton, a taco bar can stand beside our truck on a drive or lawn. If the truck can’t reach the garden, we park as close as we can and set the station up where your guests are, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Can I do a taco night myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Comparing your options

Pizza is a safe choice, but a taco bar gives guests more say over what they eat. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Loughton questions

What’s the nearest station to Loughton for guests?

Guests can use Milton Keynes Central station, which is right in Loughton.

Can you bring your truck or trailer to South Loughton Valley park?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.

Can you run a bar?

Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll talk licensing through with you.

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.

That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.

Do you do a taco bar?

We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
