Planning the serving area

The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:

  • A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
  • A parking or loading spot near the serving area
  • Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

How our taco bar hire works in Rusher's Cross

Fillings are agreed with you, such as pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. It works well for summer garden parties and retirement parties, with warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and guacamole.

Near Rusher's Cross, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Diets, allergies and planning

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:

  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Collect dietary needs with your replies
  • Choose at least one vegan filling
  • Let us know about anyone who is coeliac

We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.

Common questions in Rusher's Cross

How far is Rusher's Cross from London?

It’s about 36 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?

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.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.

Do you provide drinks?

Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will go through the licensing with you.

What do you serve?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?

Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not usually stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

Do you cook on site?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

What taco bar hire costs

Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Parking and the route in
  • The number of people
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • Serving staff

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.

What to tell us

To check availability and price, we need:

  • The address or venue name
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • Expected numbers

How it works

Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. A December taco bar in Rusher's Cross will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. In late June, the light holds until around 9:15pm.

  1. Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
  2. We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
  3. Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
  4. On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
  5. When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.

How to prepare

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
