How we price taco bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Travel, parking and access
- The number of people
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Where the event is
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What power and water the site has
The quickest way to a quote is to send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest a menu to suit.
Taco bar hire in Ponders End, from our food truck or trailer
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. If the truck can’t get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, with the venue’s agreement. Popular choices include pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls, and it is a good fit for wedding breakfasts and milestone birthdays.
London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Ponders End have no vehicle access to the room. A taco bar station can be set up away from the truck, with the venue’s agreement, and we need a short, clear route from where we unload. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

How it works
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 Ponders End until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.
FAQs for Ponders End

Yes, with the venue’s agreement: our staff set up the station where your guests are. We still need to park and unload nearby, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension.

That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
