Taco bar hire for Forest Hill events
Taco bar hire in Forest Hill, served fresh
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. We plan vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. It works well for anniversary parties and wedding breakfasts, serving warm corn and flour tortillas, fresh salsas and guacamole.
In Forest Hill, a hired hall, a courtyard or a garden without drive access can still host a taco bar. The station can go where the truck cannot, as long as the venue agrees, and the route from our parking spot to the station needs to be clear. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Who books taco bar hire in Forest Hill?
It looks generous: bright salsas, fresh guacamole and bowls of toppings in a row.
Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. In Forest Hill, you could book us for occasions like:
- Leaving dos
- Team socials
- Barn and marquee parties
- Team lunches
When the service is at a church such as Honor Oak Christian Fellowship Centre, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church.
Questions to ask before booking
- How many staff are serving, and for how long
- How dietary needs and allergies are handled
- When payment is due
- Exactly what’s included in the price
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. Evenings in Forest Hill stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. Once it gets dark, guests need to see what they’re adding to their tacos.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- We confirm the table spot and where we will unload.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- We clear the bar away after service.
Getting ready for the day

Planning help
How we price taco bar hire
These are the factors that matter most:
- How long we are needed on site
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Serving staff
- Parking and the route in
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Details that help
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- How we drive in and where we can park
- The address or venue name
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
- Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.
Our truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar.
Comparing your options
Pizza is a safe choice, but a taco bar lets every guest design their own plate. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Forest Hill questions
Is it possible to have you in Peckham Rye?
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.
Could the taco bar go somewhere in Forest Hill that the truck cannot reach?
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.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Fillings and toppings sit in separate dishes, which helps with mixed diets, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Is the taco bar staffed?
We run the station ourselves, so you don’t need helpers. When service ends, we clear it away.
How long are you on site?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
Do you come to Forest Hill?
Yes, we do. Forest Hill is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
