Taco bar hire or something else?

For a meal that’s hands-on for guests but not for you, a taco bar suits events in Payden Street well. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.

What we offer in Payden Street

  • Book food, drinks or both
  • A truck or trailer that comes to you
  • Quick, friendly service from the hatch
  • Every guest catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included

See our pricing or our guide to catering costs.

The process

We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Evenings in Payden Street stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm. After dusk, lights over the station help guests build their tacos.

  1. Share a few details about the event.
  2. You get a suggested taco-bar menu and a quote.
  3. Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
  4. We set up the station and keep everything hot.
  5. Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.

How to prepare

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Details of power and water near the bar
  • A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
  • A short, clear path for carrying the bar in

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

  • Salsas and guacamole
  • Vegan fillings
  • Tortilla chips

Questions from Payden Street

How far is Payden Street from London?

About 40 miles from central London.

Will you travel to a small place like Payden Street?

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.

Do you cook on site?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

A closer look at the menu

Toppings

Toppings let guests finish their tacos their way, and dairy-free choices are kept apart.

Vegan fillings

Spiced mushroom, or black bean and sweet potato.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

Diets, allergies and planning

We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Decide where the table goes before the day
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Fit the bar into your running order
  • Confirm any allergies to us by email

Fillings are kept hot and tortillas warmed in batches, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.

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