Stoke Mandeville: venues, access and set-up
Stoke Mandeville is about 2 miles south-east of Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire. We cater events at homes, gardens and venues in Stoke Mandeville and the surrounding area. Stoke Mandeville is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire where we can bring taco bar hire. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Stoke Mandeville to High Wycombe (about 11 miles away).
After a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Mary, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos. The Chilterns National Landscape is within about 3 miles of Stoke Mandeville, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles can’t reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by.
Taco bar hire in HP22 is planned around your venue and access and your guests. Whether your event is on Station Road, Carters Ride and Lincoln Close or anywhere nearby, we will plan where to park and serve. We also serve at events in North Lee (1 mile south-west), Weston Turville (1 mile east), Nash Lee (1 mile south), Terrick (2 miles south) and Chalkshire (2 miles south).

How it compares
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. A taco bar needs a serving spot, somewhere close to unload and the venue’s agreement, with power and water confirmed when you book. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.

Stoke Mandeville questions
Which station is closest to Stoke Mandeville?
Stoke Mandeville has its own station: Stoke Mandeville station.
Do you come to events in the Chilterns National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Can you come to a private house?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
What if a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot?
It can go beside the truck or trailer, or somewhere a vehicle cannot reach. Either way, we need to unload nearby and have the venue’s permission.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. See all areas.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. We fit it around your speeches and photos. There’s more in our taco bar guide.
Where the truck can go in Stoke Mandeville
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for guests to queue along the table
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking

Can I do a taco night myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Tell us when guests should eat
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.
