Taco bar hire near Oakleigh Park

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

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.

Taco bar hire in Oakleigh Park, from our food truck or trailer

Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, fresh salsas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it suits family celebrations and wedding meals.

Around Oakleigh Park, a taco bar suits venues and gardens that a food truck can’t get into. We set up a station staffed by our team, where guests build their own tacos. We still have to unload nearby, so let us know about loading, permits and parking. Like all of Greater London, Oakleigh Park is inside the ULEZ. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The menu you choose
  • Guest numbers
  • Serving staff
  • The length of service

Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.

What to tell us

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • Where the event is
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The date and time of the event
  • Your menu ideas

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Questions from Oakleigh Park

Which station is closest to Oakleigh Park?

The closest is Oakleigh Park station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

Could you serve in Swan Lane Open Space?

Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.

Do you provide drinks?

Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.

Can you set up where a truck cannot get in?

The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.

Is the taco bar staffed?

We run the station ourselves, so you do not need helpers. We pack it away afterwards.

What do you need at the venue?

The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.

How much does taco bar hire cost in Oakleigh Park?

We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

Space, access and the venue

Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • Space for a line of guests at the bar
  • The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
  • Space for a serving table on level ground

In Oakleigh Park, 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 you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

What we offer

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

Dietary needs and planning tips

Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:

  • Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
  • Confirm any allergies to us by email
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP

Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather.

Book the truck or trailer for evening food after a daytime taco bar.

What happens on the day

From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. Around midsummer it stays light in Oakleigh Park until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is generally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.

  1. Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
  2. Together we choose what goes on the bar.
  3. We confirm the table spot and where we will unload.
  4. On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
  5. When everyone has eaten, we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
