Taco bar hire for Perry Vale events

How our taco bar hire works in Perry Vale

Taco bars suit wedding breakfasts, parties and office lunches alike. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily. On the menu are slow-cooked fillings kept hot, warm corn and flour tortillas and pickled onions and toppings, and it is a good fit for barn and marquee parties and company parties.

In a London neighbourhood like Perry Vale, a taco bar is handy when the truck cannot reach the garden or the room. Our staff set up a serving station on a table, and 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, Perry Vale is inside the ULEZ. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Events we cater in Perry Vale

A taco bar feeds a crowd steadily, which suits a wedding breakfast or a lunch break.

Whatever you are celebrating in Perry Vale, our food truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We’re happy to cater:

  • Barn and marquee parties
  • Birthday celebrations
  • Team socials
  • Anniversary parties

Parks such as Mayow Park usually need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan.

What your quote should include

  • How each diet is kept separate
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Whether travel is included
  • The wet-weather plan

How to compare caterers

Should I do it myself?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Catering for every guest

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Count children separately
  • Tell us when guests should eat

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

Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.

Where the truck can go in Perry Vale

We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
  • Room for guests to queue along the table
  • Power and water, which we confirm when you book

In Perry Vale, 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.

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

On the menu in Perry Vale

  • Salsas and guacamole
  • Two to four fillings

For event organisers in Perry Vale

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Distance and access to the venue
  • The length of service
  • Serving staff
  • The menu you choose

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • A picture of where we’d park
  • Your menu ideas
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • How we drive in and where we can park

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just send us your details through our quote form.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Perry Vale

What’s the nearest station to Perry Vale for guests?

Forest Hill station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.

Is it possible to have you in Mayow Park?

It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.

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. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.

Do you have options for kids?

Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.

Do you have dairy-free options?

Yes. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
