Taco bar hire in Bakers Arms, served fresh
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Each guest takes a plate and fills it their way. It works well for engagement parties and marquee parties, with guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas.
From an office courtyard to a hired room, a taco bar in Bakers Arms needs space for a table and a queue. Let us know about the loading point and any stairs, lifts or narrow doorways, as London parking takes planning. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

A build-your-own taco bar in Bakers Arms
Bakers Arms is about 4 miles north-east of Shoreditch, in Greater London. From the centre of Bakers Arms to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fresh service from our food truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Bakers Arms is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Bakers Arms to London (about 6 miles away).
With the A112 nearby, getting the taco bar to Bakers Arms is simple for us. When the service is at a church such as St Stephen's, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.
Anywhere in E17, E10 and E11, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Streets in the area include Ivy Road, Ely Road and Elm Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Bakers Arms is on the A112, which makes it straightforward to bring the truck or trailer.

Dietary needs and planning tips
We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.
Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
Where the truck can go in Bakers Arms
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- A flat spot for the taco-bar station
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
In Bakers Arms, 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Bakers Arms
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Tortilla chips
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Vegan fillings
- Two to four fillings
- Salsas and guacamole

What else we do in Bakers Arms
Why choose taco bar hire in Bakers Arms?
For a meal that’s hands-on for guests but not for you, a taco bar suits events in Bakers Arms well. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.

See our prices page or the cost guide.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Bakers Arms questions
Could you serve in Leyton Jubilee Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
Is parking a problem for events in Bakers Arms?
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.
How much is a taco bar?
We don’t publish set prices, as each booking is different. Send us your details and we will quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
What do you need at the venue?
Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you come to Bakers Arms?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Bakers Arms is within our area. To check your date, use our quote form.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. We fit it around your speeches and photos. There is more in our taco bar guide.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
The process
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. In Bakers Arms, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is normally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
