Common questions in Woodcote
Is parking a problem for events in Woodcote?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
Is it possible to have you in Dollypers Hill?
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 will send what they need from us.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
How much is a food truck for an event?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually need. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we will reply with a quote.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
How much is a taco bar?
Every taco bar is quoted for individually, depending on guests, menu, venue and timings. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.
Where do you cater?
We cover London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Taco bar hire in Woodcote, served fresh
The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. Where a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. It works well for wedding meals and birthday celebrations, serving warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
In a London neighbourhood like Woodcote, 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, Woodcote is inside the ULEZ. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Count children separately
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
If the schedule slips, tell us and we’ll hold everything hot until you are ready.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Who books taco bar hire in Woodcote?
You are not limited to places a truck can park, such as a courtyard, a barn or a hall, with the venue’s agreement.
If you’re planning any of these, we can help:
- Working lunches
- Summer garden parties
- Family get-togethers
- Wedding evening food
When the service is at a church such as St Swithun's, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.
What your quote should include
- A clear list of what’s included
- The caterer’s food hygiene rating
- VAT, if it applies
- How dietary needs and allergies are handled
What taco bar hire costs
Contact us for a quote, which reflects:
- The menu you choose
- How many guests we’re serving
- What the venue already provides
- The length of service
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What we need to know

- The date and rough timings
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will make suggestions. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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.
