Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re 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.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Taco bar hire in Emerson Park, served fresh
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. For team lunches and retirement parties, we can serve guacamole, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas.
Around Emerson Park, a taco bar suits venues and gardens that a food truck can’t get into. Our staff set up a serving station on a table, and guests build their own tacos. We still have to unload nearby, so let us know about loading, permits and parking. Like all of Greater London, Emerson Park is inside the ULEZ. You’ll know what’s included before booking: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

Where the truck can go in Emerson Park
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- Somewhere close by for our vehicle to park and unload
In Emerson Park, 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 before booking.
What we offer
- Vegan fillings
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Salsas and guacamole
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Pickled onions and toppings
The menu, item by item
Vegan fillings
Black bean and sweet potato, or spiced mushrooms, cooked separately.
Hot fillings
A few fillings give guests plenty of choice, with at least one vegan. You choose them with us.
What taco bar hire costs
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Serving staff
- Food, drinks or both
- Whether you need disposables
- The length of service
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- The address or venue name
- A picture of where we’d park
- The date and rough timings
- How we drive in and where we can park
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, use our quote form.

Emerson Park questions
Could the taco bar go somewhere in Emerson Park that the truck cannot reach?
Yes, if the venue allows it. The truck or trailer does not have to reach the room, but we do need to unload close by, so tell us about loading, permits and parking.
Is parking a problem for events in Emerson Park?
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.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
What if a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Is the food very hot?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
