How our taco bar hire works in Monkhams
Fillings are agreed with you, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. It suits team lunches and company parties, with warm corn and flour tortillas, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and burrito bowls.
In Monkhams, all a taco bar needs is room for the station and space for guests to queue. Let us know about the loading point and any stairs, lifts or narrow doorways. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

What we need at the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- A clear area in front of the station
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
As a London location, Monkhams is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Menu ideas
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Corn and flour tortillas

Questions from Monkhams
Is it possible to have you in The Highams Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Which station should guests use for Monkhams?
Guests can use Highams Park station, about 1.2 miles south-west of Monkhams.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue, and guests build their own plates.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
Who books taco bar hire in Monkhams?
It gets people talking: guests compare fillings and swap topping ideas as they go.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Organising for someone else?
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Organising a club, school or community event in Monkhams? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. A December taco bar in Monkhams will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, the venue, how many guests and any diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- We agree where the table goes and where our vehicle can unload.
- Our staff set up the station, keep the fillings hot and top up the bar through service.
- When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Give us a contact for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
How to get a price
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote.

Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up, then load our vehicle.
