Catering for every guest
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Set out seating near the bar
- Confirm any allergies to us by email

- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you are ready.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
Taco bar hire in Paynes Green, served fresh
The toppings are where guests get creative: pickled onions, coriander, lime, shredded lettuce and cheese. It works well for family celebrations and summer garden parties, serving burrito bowls, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas.
In a hamlet or village like Paynes Green, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it; tell us about access and parking. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.
What we need at the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work. The main points are:
- Space for a serving table on level ground
- Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
- Room for guests to queue along the table
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Other catering in Paynes Green
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Step by step
