Taco bar hire for Hackney Marshes events
Taco bar hire for your event in Hackney Marshes
Mixed diets are simple at a taco bar, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. We plan gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. At family get-togethers and wedding breakfasts, we can serve warm corn and flour tortillas, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and a build-your-own taco bar.
In Hackney Marshes, 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 cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Space, access and the venue
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
- Space for a serving table on level ground
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
As a London location, Hackney Marshes is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading take planning: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Set out seating near the bar
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
What taco bar hire costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- What’s on the menu
- How many staff you need
- Guest numbers
- Distance and access to the venue
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- What power and water the site has
- Where the event is
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
Organising for someone else?
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Common questions in Hackney Marshes
Where would you park in Hackney Marshes?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Our venue in Hackney Marshes 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 to park and unload nearby, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension.
How many guests can you serve?
Our truck and trailer service usually suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
What should the venue provide?
A level spot for the serving table, room to queue and somewhere close to unload our vehicle. We confirm power and water when you book.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Who looks after the taco bar?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Taco bar hire or something else?
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar handles vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests without separate plates. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.
What we offer in Hackney Marshes
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Menus for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests
- A plan agreed before the day
