Taco bar hire for your event in Staplefield

A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. We serve burrito bowls, warm corn and flour tortillas and pickled onions and toppings, and it suits staff parties and evening receptions.

For a rural spot like Staplefield, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Staplefield

Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mark?

How far is Staplefield from London?

Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.

How spicy is the food?

We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

Is the food suitable for children?

Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.

Which areas do you serve?

London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.

What does taco bar hire cost?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.

What food and drinks do you offer?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

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 enjoy the party, let us serve.

Our caterer checklist

Taco bar hire or something else?

Why book with us

  • Quoted for your event
  • Everything served fresh from the hatch
  • Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
  • Allergen information for everything we serve

Take a look at our pricing or what Mexican catering costs.

What affects the price in Staplefield

Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How long we are needed on site
  • Whether you need disposables
  • Staff for serving and the bar
  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • What power and water the site has

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, tell us about it on our contact page.

The process

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’re unsure. Winter evenings in Staplefield close in by about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us about your event and your guests.
  2. We send a sample spread and a quote.
  3. We check power, water and access with your venue.
  4. We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
  5. Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Let us know the timings for the day

Ask for a quote
