About our taco bar hire in Stoke
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added, with licensing checked with you. We serve pickled onions and toppings, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas, and it suits working lunches and anniversary parties.
Near Stoke, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer.
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. A photo of the space helps. Evenings in Stoke stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm. Once it gets dark, guests need to see what they’re adding to their tacos.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Questions from Stoke
How far is Stoke from London?
About 60 miles from central London, and we cover it.
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Stoke?
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.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could 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.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, though we can’t guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can you set up where a truck cannot get in?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
