Taco bar hire for Olney events

About our taco bar hire in Olney

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. It works well for leaving dos and working lunches, serving slow-cooked fillings kept hot, burrito bowls and guacamole.

A place like Olney may have a hall or a club nearby if your garden is small; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

For event organisers in Olney

If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

FAQs for Olney

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of Saints Peter and Paul?

Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.

How far is Olney from London?

About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it.

How big an event can you cater?

That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?

The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We agree the timings with your venue, and guests build their own plates.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, including Milton Keynes. See all areas.

What if the weather’s bad?

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

Events we cater in Olney

The bar becomes a meeting point: people chat about salsas and fillings while they build.

Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Common bookings include:

  • Retirement parties
  • Back-garden gatherings
  • Marquee parties
  • Christenings and family parties

By road, Olney is on or near the A509 and B565, so bringing the taco bar and our truck or trailer is straightforward.

Questions to ask before you book

  • The caterer’s food hygiene rating
  • How many staff are serving, and for how long
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Who provides plates and napkins

Choosing a Mexican caterer

Popular choices

Guacamole

No taco bar is complete without guacamole, so we keep it topped up.

Hot fillings

Slow-cooked fillings kept hot on the bar, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.

What affects the price in Olney

Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • Food, drinks or both
  • What the venue already provides
  • The number of people

Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Getting an accurate quote

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • What you’d like on the menu
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • The date and rough timings

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll come back with a clear quote and a suggested menu.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

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.

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Diets, allergies and planning

With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:

  • Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
  • Collect dietary needs with your replies
  • Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
  • Make sure one filling is vegan

Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.

Nachos to share can keep guests going before the bar opens.

Comparing your options

For a meal that is hands-on for guests but not for you, a taco bar is a strong choice for your event. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.

Planning a taco bar in Olney

Olney is about 9 miles north of Milton Keynes, in Milton Keynes. Tell us where your event in Olney will be, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up before the day.

We cater right across the region, from Olney to Milton Keynes (9 miles away).

If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like Church of Saints Peter and Paul, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. Close to Olney are historic houses such as Turvey Abbey (3.7 miles 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 Milton Keynes takes in MK46, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Streets in the area include High Street, Market Place and High Street South, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

How it works

Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. In Olney, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is usually served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.

  1. Send us your date, where the taco bar will go, numbers and dietary needs.
  2. We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
  3. Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
  4. On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
  5. Once guests have eaten, we take down the bar and leave the spot tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Tell us when you want service to start
