Taco bar hire near Woodside
Taco bar hire for your event in Woodside
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. If the truck cannot get to the spot, we park close by, unload and carry the bar in, as long as the venue agrees. It works well for wedding breakfasts and barn and marquee parties, with pickled onions and toppings, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas.
In a London neighbourhood like Woodside, a taco bar is handy when the truck can’t reach the garden or the room. We set up a station staffed by our team, where guests build their own tacos. We still need to park and unload close by, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

What affects the price in Woodside
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Whether you need disposables
- Distance and access to the venue
- The number of people
- Serving staff
Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- What power and water the site has
- What you’d like on the menu
- Roughly how many adults and children
- The date and time of the event
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, send a quick message through our quote form.
Working with your venue
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Comparing your options
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar handles vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests without separate plates. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
Why book with us
- Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- Book food, drinks or both
- We cover Woodside and the whole of Greater London
- A plan agreed before the day

Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. In Woodside, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- You get a suggested taco-bar spread and a quote.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
- When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.
How to prepare
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
- Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Give us separate numbers for children
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather.
Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
In Woodside, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we offer
- Vegan fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Two to four fillings
- Salsas and guacamole

It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
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.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
It can go beside the truck or trailer, or somewhere a vehicle can’t reach. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
