How our taco bar hire works in Aldgate
The toppings are where guests get creative: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, depending on the menu you choose. It works well for christenings and family parties and anniversary parties, with warm corn and flour tortillas, fresh salsas and pickled onions and toppings.
Around Aldgate, a taco bar suits venues and gardens that a food truck cannot get into. We set up a station staffed by our team, where guests build their own tacos. We still have to unload nearby, so let us know about loading, permits and parking. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

About the menu
Salsas
A row of salsas, mild to hot, made for your event.
Vegan fillings
A vegan filling sits on the bar with the rest, not an afterthought.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Your questions about taco bar hire in Aldgate
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Finsbury Circus?
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St James Duke's Place?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
How does taco bar hire work?
We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and guests build their own tacos. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
