Taco bar hire in East End of London

What we need at the venue

We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Room nearby to park and unload our vehicle
  • Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
  • A level area for the taco-bar table

In East End of London, 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.

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Popular choices

  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Salsas and guacamole
  • Tortilla chips
  • Two to four fillings
  • Vegan fillings
  • Corn and flour tortillas

About our taco bar hire in East End of London

Our taco bar travels to events across East End of London and the surrounding area: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices. It suits milestone birthdays and anniversary parties, with warm corn and flour tortillas, guacamole and fresh salsas.

In East End of London, a hired hall, a courtyard or a garden without drive access can still host a taco bar. The station can go where the truck can’t, as long as the venue agrees, and the route from our parking spot to the station needs to be clear. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Perfect for your event in East End of London

It gets people talking: people chat about salsas and fillings while they build.

Big or small, a truck or trailer works well. Typical bookings include:

  • Birthday parties
  • Team socials
  • Marquee parties
  • Family celebrations

Around East End of London, historic houses include Mansion House (1.5 miles west) and Dr Johnson's House (2.3 miles west). Estates and listed houses set their own rules for caterers, so check where a taco bar station and our vehicle would be permitted before you book.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Any travel, parking or access charges
  • The venue requirements
  • How long the service runs
  • Allergen information for each dish

Our caterer checklist

Should I do it myself?

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.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

Catering for every guest

Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:

  • Put allergies in writing for us
  • Make sure one filling is vegan
  • Ensure guests have somewhere to sit
  • Include a dietary question on your invitations

Fillings are kept hot and tortillas warmed in batches.

Our food truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar, quoted with the rest.

Warm tortillas

Tortillas are the base of the bar. We keep a steady supply going.

Guacamole

Guacamole made fresh, with lime and coriander.

Comparing your options

A taco bar and a truck serve the same food in different ways. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.

  • Menus chosen with you

Your questions about taco bar hire in East End of London

Where would you park in East End of London?

It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Our venue in East End of London has no vehicle access: can we still have a taco bar?

Usually, if the venue agrees to a staffed station. We still need somewhere close by to unload, and in London that may mean a loading bay or a parking suspension.

Is the food very hot?

It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers.

How much is a food truck for an event?

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.

Can the taco bar cater for special diets?

Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

What does a taco bar cost?

We don’t publish set prices, as each booking is different. Share your plans and you’ll get a quote. See what Mexican catering costs for background.

What if a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot?

The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.

For event organisers in East End of London

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.

Step by step

Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. In East End of London, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.

  1. Begin with the date and headcount.
  2. We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
  3. We fix timings with you and the venue.
  4. Service starts when your running order says.
  5. Once service is over, we pack away.

Before we arrive

  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
