Taco bar hire in Plashet, from our truck or trailer

Truck and trailer bookings typically suit around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the taco bar to match. We serve pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and guacamole, which works well for barn parties and office lunches.

From an office courtyard to a hired room, a taco bar in Plashet needs space for a table and a queue. Tell us where we can stop to unload, and about stairs, lifts or narrow doors. You will know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

How to compare caterers

Should I do it myself?

Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Why choose taco bar hire in Plashet?

For event organisers in Plashet

Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:

  • Set out seating near the bar
  • Include a dietary question on your invitations
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
  • Include a vegan filling on the bar

If the schedule slips, tell us and we’ll hold everything hot until you’re ready.

Our food truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar.

What happens on the day

When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Around midsummer it stays light in Plashet until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is typically served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.

  1. Tell us about your event and your guests.
  2. We send a sample spread and a quote.
  3. Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
  4. We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
  5. Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Space, access and the venue

We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:

  • The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
  • A level area for the taco-bar table
  • Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors

London streets around Plashet can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

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