Taco bar hire in Stanmore

Taco bar hire for your event in Stanmore

We run the taco bar ourselves: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Your hosts can stay with their guests. For company parties and wedding evening food, we will put together a menu of pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and slow-cooked fillings kept hot and more.

In a London neighbourhood like Stanmore, a taco bar is handy when the truck cannot reach the garden or the room. Our staff set up a serving station on a table, and guests build their own tacos. We still have to unload nearby, so let us know about loading, permits and parking. Like all of Greater London, Stanmore is inside the ULEZ. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Should I do it myself?

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

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.

Stanmore: venues, access and set-up

Stanmore is in Greater London. Events in Stanmore are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We cover 764 places across Greater London. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Stanmore to London (12 miles away).

Before you plan a taco bar in Canons Park, find out who manages it, as catering and unloading there both need their agreement. The A410 and B461 run on or near Stanmore, which makes the journey with the taco bar an easy one.

We serve at events all over HA7, HA8 and HA3. Streets in the area include Church Road, London Road and Edgware Road High Street, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Being close to the A410 and B461, Stanmore is simple for us to get to with the truck or trailer for your event. Close by, we cover events in Belmont (1 mile south-west), Brockley Hill (1 mile north), Harrow Weald (2 miles west), Headstone (3 miles west) and Hatch End (3 miles west). We also cater in nearby towns such as London (12 miles south-east), City of Westminster (9 miles south-east), Marylebone (9 miles south-east), Kensington (9 miles south-east), St Pancras (10 miles south-east) and Shoreditch (11 miles south-east).

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, planned around your event. In Stanmore, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.

  1. Begin with the date and headcount.
  2. We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
  3. Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our station when service ends.

Getting ready for the day

Prices and what affects them

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Travel, parking and access
  • What the venue already provides
  • Whether you add a drinks bar or food
  • How many guests we’re serving

Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What we need to know

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Your menu ideas
  • Gate widths, slopes and the ground
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Where the event is

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you are ready, send a quick message through our quote form.

How to compare caterers

Diets, allergies and planning

Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:

  • Decide where the table goes before the day
  • Collect dietary needs with your replies
  • Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

Fillings are kept hot and tortillas warmed in batches.

Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers, quoted for your event.

Before you choose a spot

If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Permission from the venue for us to set up
  • Details of power and water near the bar
  • Space for a line of guests at the bar

In Stanmore, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

On the menu in Stanmore

  • Two to four fillings
  • Tortilla chips
  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Vegan fillings
  • Salsas and guacamole

Stanmore: your questions answered

Is parking a problem for events in Stanmore?

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.

Which station is closest to Stanmore?

Guests can use Harrow & Wealdstone station, about 1.9 miles south-west of Stanmore.

How does a taco bar work?

A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and each guest builds their own. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.

What about power on site?

Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Who looks after the taco bar?

Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.

How long are you on site?

We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.

What do you need at the venue?

Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.

Why choose taco bar hire in Stanmore?

A sandwich platter is easy to order but rarely remembered. A hot taco bar gives guests something to gather round. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
