Taco bar hire in Nalderswood, from our food truck or trailer
Toppings make the bar: pickled onions, coriander, lime, shredded lettuce and cheese. For summer garden parties and marquee parties, we will put together a menu of guacamole, burrito bowls and fresh salsas for your guests.
In a small place like Nalderswood, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Your questions about taco bar hire in Nalderswood
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Could you serve in Edolph's Copse?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide what they ask for from us.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, Surrey included. See all areas.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service normally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Tell us when guests should eat
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.
Our food truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar, quoted with the rest.

The menu, item by item
Salsas
Salsa lets everyone pick their own heat.
Toppings
Toppings let guests finish their tacos their way, and dairy-free choices are kept apart.
Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Guest numbers
- Timings and hours
- Serving staff
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Expected numbers
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- The date and rough timings
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
