Why choose taco bar hire in New Barnet?

The bar becomes a meeting point: guests compare fillings and swap topping ideas as they go.

These are some of the occasions we serve around New Barnet:

  • Birthday parties
  • Working lunches
  • Family celebrations
  • Leaving and retirement parties

Parks such as Victoria Recreation Ground normally need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who provides plates and napkins
  • The deposit and payment dates
  • Travel and parking costs
  • When final numbers are due

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Taco bar hire in New Barnet, served fresh

The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Building your own is quick, which keeps the line moving. For wedding meals and family get-togethers, we can serve fresh salsas, warm corn and flour tortillas and pickled onions and toppings for your guests.

London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in New Barnet have no vehicle access to the room. The station can go where the truck can’t, as long as the venue agrees, and the route from our parking spot to the station needs to be clear. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

The process

On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. Daylight in New Barnet runs to about 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Let us know if an outdoor station will run after dark, and we’ll talk about lighting.

  1. Begin with the date and headcount.
  2. We agree a menu that covers every diet.
  3. Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our station when service ends.

Preparing for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

DIY taco night versus a caterer

You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.

FAQs for New Barnet

Can you set up a taco bar where your truck can’t park in New Barnet?

Yes, if the venue allows it. The truck or trailer does not have to reach the room, but we do need to unload close by, so tell us about loading, permits and parking.

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Victoria Recreation Ground?

It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.

Do you need electricity?

That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.

Do you have vegan options?

Of course. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.

Can you serve in the rain?

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Can you set up where a truck can’t get in?

The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. Either way, we need to unload nearby and have the venue’s permission.

What does taco bar hire cost?

We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.

For planners, venues and organisers

Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

Organising a club, school or community event in New Barnet? 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 we need at the venue

We will be honest if a space will not work, and help find another spot. What matters most:

  • Room nearby to park and unload our vehicle
  • A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
  • A clear area in front of the station

In New Barnet, 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.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Popular choices

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