How our taco bar hire works in St Lawrence
We run the taco bar ourselves: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. It works well for barn and marquee parties and leaving dos, with guacamole, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
For a place the size of St Lawrence, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Let us know about the drive and parking. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Make sure guests have somewhere to sit
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you are ready.
For larger groups, ask about a second serving point.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
St Lawrence: your questions answered
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Laurence: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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 will check the access.
Is St Lawrence close to London?
About 65 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you cover St Lawrence?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including St Lawrence. To check your date, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
What should the venue provide?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. We confirm power and water when you book.
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.
Is a taco bar suitable for a big group?
Truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the bar to suit.
