Taco bar hire in Maypole, served fresh

Our truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the taco bar to match. Popular choices include pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and guacamole, and it suits team lunches and back-garden gatherings.

In Maypole, a hired hall, a courtyard or a garden without drive access can still host a taco bar. A taco bar station can be set up away from the truck, with the venue’s agreement, and we need a short, clear route from where we unload. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Maypole: venues, access and set-up

Maypole is about 3 miles south-east of Orpington, in Greater London. Tell us where your event in Maypole will be, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. Maypole is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. We cater right across the region, from Maypole to Croydon (10 miles away).

Guests arriving without a car will want to know that the nearest station is Knockholt station, about 0.7 miles south-west. Guests leaving a church like Mission Chapel could head to a nearby hall or garden where the taco bar is ready. With the Kent Downs National Landscape about 3 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Maypole. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.

For taco bar hire in BR6, we plan around your venue and the route in and timings. Your event could be at a home on Jubilee Road, Hollybush Lane and Maypole Road. We also serve at events in Bopeep (1 mile south), Well Hill (1 mile east), Chelsfield (1 mile north-west), Badgers Mount (1 mile south) and Goddington (1 mile north-west). We also cater in nearby towns such as London (14 miles north-west), Shoreditch (15 miles north-west), Whitechapel (14 miles north-west), Stockwell (14 miles north-west), Orpington (3 miles north-west) and Plaistow (13 miles north-west).

Nearby you’ll also find Lullingstone Castle (2.4 miles east) and Orpington Hospital (2 miles west). Not far away are The Warren and Summer Hill.

  • Local pubs include The Bo-Peep pub (within half a mile south)

Organising for someone else?

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

Organising a club, school or community event in Maypole? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.

What happens on the day

We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. In Maypole, 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 normally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.

  1. Tell us about your event and your guests.
  2. You get a suggested taco-bar menu and a quote.
  3. We check power, water and access with your venue.
  4. We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
  5. Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Find out what power and water are available

Our caterer checklist

Maypole: your questions answered

We are having a ceremony at Mission Chapel: 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.

What’s the nearest station to Maypole for guests?

The closest is Knockholt station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.

How does a taco bar work?

Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. Our staff look after the bar throughout.

What food and drinks do you offer?

Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

Can you come to a private house?

Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

Is a taco bar right for a wedding?

It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue.

What do you need at the venue?

Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.

Popular choices

Vegan fillings

Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own.

Warm tortillas

Soft corn and flour tortillas, kept warm so there is always one ready. The corn ones suit gluten-free guests.

Space, access and the venue

The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:

  • The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
  • Space for a serving table on level ground
  • Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both

In Maypole, 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.

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

On the menu in Maypole

  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Two to four fillings
  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Tortilla chips
  • Vegan fillings
  • Salsas and guacamole

How it compares

Sandwich platters are convenient but forgettable. Warm tortillas and hot fillings give a lunch more to talk about. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
