Taco bar hire in Outwood, from our food truck or trailer
We bring taco bars to events in and around Outwood: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices. On the menu are pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and warm corn and flour tortillas, and it is a good fit for anniversary parties and marquee parties.
Near Outwood, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Outwood
Do you come out to small places like Outwood?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
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.
Can you set up where a truck can’t get in?
It can go beside the truck or trailer, or somewhere a vehicle can’t reach. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you cover Outwood?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Outwood. For a quote, send a quick message through our quote form.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
Do you do a taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Send us allergy details in writing
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
What happens on the day
