Taco bar hire in Haggerston, served fresh
You choose the fillings with us, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. It suits wedding meals and office lunches, serving warm corn and flour tortillas, guacamole and fresh salsas.
London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Haggerston have no vehicle access to the room. 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 arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Common questions in Haggerston
Could the taco bar go somewhere in Haggerston that the truck can’t 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.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Haggerston Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What does a taco bar cost?
There is no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
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.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but a few things matter:
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you’re booking both
- Room nearby to park and unload our vehicle
- The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
In Haggerston, 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 before you book.
