Taco bar hire in Creekmouth, served fresh

A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. It works well for evening wedding receptions and team lunches, with warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.

In Creekmouth, a hired hall, a courtyard or a garden without drive access can still host a taco bar. A taco bar station can be set up away from the truck, with the venue’s agreement, and we need a short, clear route from where we unload. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Prices and what affects them

Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Distance and access to the venue
  • How long we are needed on site
  • Whether you need disposables
  • Guest numbers

A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

  • Where the event is
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field

Common questions in Creekmouth

Can you bring your truck or trailer to Abbey Wood 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’ll send what they need from us.

Which station should guests use for Creekmouth?

Guests can use Barking Riverside station, about 0.8 miles east of Creekmouth.

Is a taco bar right for a wedding?

A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. Service is timed around speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.

How is the food prepared?

We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.

How does taco bar hire work?

A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and each guest builds their own. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.

Do you do margaritas?

Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll talk licensing through with you and your venue.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Catering for every guest

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:

  • Agree the serving spot with your venue early
  • Count children separately
  • Collect dietary needs with your replies
  • Make sure one filling is vegan

If the schedule slips, tell us and we will hold everything hot until you are ready.

Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.

Where the truck can go in Creekmouth

Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • Power and water, which we confirm when you book
  • Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
  • Space beside the truck or trailer if you’re booking both

Creekmouth is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits, a driveway or whether a parking suspension is needed.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.
