Taco bar hire for your event in Custom House
Truck and trailer bookings usually suit around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the taco bar to match. At leaving dos and christenings and family parties, we can serve warm corn and flour tortillas, a build-your-own taco bar and guacamole for your guests.
In Custom House, 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. You’ll know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.

FAQs for Custom House
Is it possible to have you in Thames Barrier 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.
Our venue in Custom House has no vehicle access: can we still have a taco bar?
Yes, with the venue’s agreement: our staff set up the station where your guests are. We still need somewhere close by to unload, and in London that may mean a loading bay or a parking suspension.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a picture of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you come to Custom House?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Custom House and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.

What else we do in Custom House
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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.
Why choose taco bar hire in Custom House?
A sandwich platter is easy to order but rarely remembered. Warm tortillas and hot fillings give a lunch more to talk about. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:
- Somewhere close by for our vehicle to park and unload
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
In Custom House, 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 will advise.
