Taco bar hire for Poyle events
How our taco bar hire works in Poyle
Our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the taco bar around them. It works well for staff parties and leaving dos, with warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
Near Poyle, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we will confirm power and water with you. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A December taco bar in Poyle will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Tell us about your event and your guests.
- You get a suggested taco-bar menu and a quote.
- Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
- We set up the station and keep everything hot.
- Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Give us your final numbers and diets
How to get a price
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, tell us about it on our contact page.

A build-your-own taco bar in Poyle
Poyle is about 3 miles north of Staines-upon-Thames, in Slough. Events in Poyle are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We serve in 31 places across Slough, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Woking, about 12 miles away.
Historic houses near Poyle include Frogmore House (3.5 miles west) and Windsor Castle (3.9 miles west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. Parks such as Arthur Jacob Nature Reserve usually need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan.

Local streets include Poplar Close, Sherborne Close and Bath Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

Common questions in Poyle
Do you set up taco bars indoors in places like Poyle?
We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.
Is it possible to have you in Arthur Jacob Nature Reserve?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
Our service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Share your headcount and we will size the bar to suit.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Which areas do you serve?
We cover London and the South East, including Slough. See all areas.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
How much does taco bar hire cost?
We quote for each taco bar, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Check where our vehicle can unload
We get there early enough to unload, lay out the table and heat everything through.
Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.
Taco bar hire or something else?
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar caters for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free guests from one table. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.

Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- The length of service
- Your choice of food and drinks
- The number of people
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
What we need to know
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and when you want service to start
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, tell us about it on our contact page.
DIY taco night versus 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.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Where the truck can go in Poyle
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
- Permission from the venue for us to set up
- Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.
Popular choices
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Salsas and guacamole
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Vegan fillings
