Taco bar hire for Battersea events

How it works

Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Daylight in Battersea runs to about 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Let us know if an outdoor station will run after dark, and we will talk about lighting.

  1. Tell us about your event and your guests.
  2. You get a suggested taco-bar menu and a quote.
  3. We check power, water and access with your venue.
  4. We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
  5. At the end, we take everything away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready

How our taco bar hire works in Battersea

Truck and trailer bookings usually suit around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we will size the taco bar to match. On the menu are pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it suits engagement parties and wedding breakfasts.

From an office courtyard to a hired room, a taco bar in Battersea needs space for a table and a queue. Tell us where we can stop to unload, and about stairs, lifts or narrow doors. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

How we price taco bar hire

These are the factors that matter most:

  • How many staff you need
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • How long we are needed on site
  • Parking and the route in

Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Getting an accurate quote

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Expected numbers
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • The date and time of the event

The quickest way to a quote is to send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.

Comparing your options

A standard buffet often sits out cold. Our fillings stay hot and the bowls are topped up as guests come back. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.

Why book with us

  • A plan agreed before the day
  • Served fresh from our truck or trailer
  • Book food, drinks or both
  • Menus chosen with you

See our prices page or what Mexican catering costs.

Popular choices

Vegan fillings

Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own, not an afterthought.

Warm tortillas

Every taco starts with a warm tortilla. We keep a steady supply going through service.

Events we cater in Battersea

Building your own is quick, so a crowd is fed at a steady pace.

In Battersea and nearby, we can cater all sorts of events. Popular bookings include:

  • Staff parties
  • Leaving dos
  • Wedding breakfasts
  • Family celebrations

Around Battersea, historic houses include Carlyle's House (1.4 miles north) and Fulham Palace (2.1 miles west). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our food truck or trailer parks further off.

Comparing caterers

  • Staff numbers and hours
  • Whether plates, napkins and cutlery are included
  • The deposit and payment dates
  • Travel and parking costs

Our caterer checklist

Working with your venue

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Battersea questions

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Imperial 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 will send what they need from us.

Where would you park in Battersea?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. Some streets may need a parking suspension from the council, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

What does taco bar hire cost?

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.

Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?

Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.

What should the venue provide?

Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.

What about power on site?

It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.

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. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.

Catering for every guest

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
  • Agree the serving spot with your venue early
  • Send us allergy details in writing
  • Confirm a loading spot close to the bar

Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.

Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
