Taco bar hire for Norbury events
What taco bar hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
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.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The date and time of the event
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Expected numbers

How our taco bar hire works in Norbury
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Building your own is quick, which keeps the line moving, and nobody waits long. At summer garden parties and family celebrations, we can serve pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and warm corn and flour tortillas.
In Norbury, 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. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

Taco bars for events around Norbury
Norbury is about 1 mile north of Thornton Heath, in Greater London. For an event in Norbury, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. Norbury is one of 764 places in Greater London where we can bring taco bar hire.
Guests arriving without a car will want to know that the nearest station is Norbury station, about 0.6 miles west. Nearby historic houses include Kingswood House (1.9 miles north-east) and Addington Palace (4.6 miles south-east). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our truck or trailer parks further off.
This part of Greater London takes in CR7, SW16 and SE19, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. We can cater an event on streets such as Green Lane, Croft Road and Downs Road. We also serve at events in Pollards Hill (1 mile north), Thornton Heath (1 mile south), Streatham (2 miles north-west), Streatham Park (2 miles north-west) and Mitcham (2 miles west). Further out, we also cater in London (6 miles north), City of Westminster (8 miles north), Marylebone (8 miles north), Kensington (7 miles north-west), St Pancras (8 miles north) and Shoreditch (8 miles north).
Nearby you’ll also find Croydon University Hospital (1.3 miles south) and Crystal Palace Museum (1.5 miles north-east). The countryside around Norbury includes Knight's Hill and Biggin Wood.
- Local schools include Norbury Manor Business and Enterprise College for Girls (less than half a mile north-west) and Silburn Reid (0.9 miles north)
- Local pubs include The Moon Under Water pub (0.6 miles west)
- Other local spots include St Leonard's (1.7 miles north-west)
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Include a dietary question on your invitations
- Ensure one filling is vegan
- Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.
A wider range of salsas suits guests who like it mild and those who like it hot.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- A level area for the taco-bar table
As a London location, Norbury 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 before you book.
What we offer
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Tortilla chips
- Two to four fillings
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Salsas and guacamole
Common questions in Norbury
What about parking in Norbury?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Oswald?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you cover Norbury?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Norbury. For a quote, use our quote form.
Is the taco bar staffed?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so your hosts don’t need to. We pack it away afterwards.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.

The process
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Around midsummer it stays light in Norbury until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
How to get a price

Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
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.
