For event organisers in South Woodford
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in South Woodford? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Taco bar hire in South Woodford, from our truck or trailer
You choose the fillings with us, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. We serve fresh salsas, guacamole and pickled onions and toppings, which works well for leaving and retirement parties and anniversary parties.
In South Woodford, a hired hall, a courtyard or a garden without drive access can still host a taco bar. The station can go where the truck can’t, as long as the venue agrees, and the route from our parking spot to the station needs to be clear. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Is taco bar hire right for your event?

Common questions in South Woodford
Could you serve our guests after a service at Holy Trinity?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
What about parking in South Woodford?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you stay to run the taco bar?
We run the station ourselves, so you do not need helpers. We pack it away afterwards.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
Truck and trailer service generally 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.
What does taco bar hire cost?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
How the day works
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. Daylight in South Woodford runs to about 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Let us know if an outdoor station will run after dark, and we’ll talk about lighting.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- We agree where the table goes and where our vehicle can unload.
- Our staff set up the station, keep the fillings hot and top up the bar through service.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Where the truck can go in South Woodford
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
