Taco bar hire for Stone events
Taco bar hire for your event in Stone
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. We serve guacamole, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and fresh salsas, and it is a good fit for company parties and garden parties.
In and around Stone, a taco bar works beside the truck or in a hall nearby. If the truck can’t reach the garden, we park as close as we can and set the station up where your guests are, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. 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.

How we price taco bar hire
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Travel, parking and access
- The menu you choose
- How long we’re needed on site
- The number of people
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Your quote confirms the full price.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- The address or venue name
- Diets and allergies you know about
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The date and rough timings
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Count children separately
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Put allergies in writing for us
- Check where our vehicle can unload
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we’ll set out the options in your quote.
How it compares
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar handles vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests without separate plates. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

Questions from Stone
How far is Stone from London?
Roughly 16 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Is it possible to have you in Darenth Country Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you take everything away?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
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. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
