Taco bar hire near Monks Orchard
Taco bar hire in Monks Orchard, served fresh
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, as fillings and toppings are kept in separate dishes. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. It works well for anniversary parties and family celebrations, with guacamole, pickled onions and toppings and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Monks Orchard have no vehicle access to the room. The station can go where the truck cannot, as long as the venue agrees, and we need a short, clear route from where we unload.

A closer look at the menu
Guacamole
Guacamole made fresh, with lime and coriander.
Hot fillings
You might choose two or three fillings. You choose them with us.
Comparing your options
A standard buffet often sits out cold. We keep the fillings hot and refill the dishes through service. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

From late May to late September, sunset in Monks Orchard moves from about 8:50pm to 7:05pm. Let us know if an outdoor station will run after dark, and we’ll talk about lighting.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.

Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Parking and the route in
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Staff for serving and the bar
- What’s on the menu
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

For a quote, it helps to have:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What you’d like on the menu
To get a price, just send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
Working with your venue
