About our taco bar hire in Homerton
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: keeping the fillings hot, warming tortillas and topping up the bowls. Your hosts can stay with their guests. On the menu are pickled onions and toppings, warm corn and flour tortillas and a build-your-own taco bar, and it is a good fit for staff parties and anniversary parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Homerton, a taco bar is handy when the truck can’t reach the garden or the room. Our staff set up a serving station on a table, and guests build their own tacos. We still need to park and unload close by, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.

Taco bars for events around Homerton
Homerton is about 4 miles north-east of London, in Greater London. Events in Homerton are planned around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. Homerton is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we can bring taco bar hire.

- Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
London streets around Homerton can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

Comparing your options
For a meal that’s hands-on for guests but not for you, a taco bar is a strong choice for your event. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

Catering for every guest
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Set out seating near the bar
If the schedule slips, tell us and we’ll hold everything hot until you’re ready.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
How it works
When we arrive, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Winter evenings in Homerton close in by about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, where the taco bar will go, numbers and dietary needs.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- We agree where the table goes and where our vehicle can unload.
- Our staff set up the station, keep the fillings hot and top up the bar through service.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Give us a contact for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water

Homerton questions
What about parking in Homerton?
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 a reception after a service at United Reformed Church?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
Do you come to Homerton?
We do. Homerton is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, though we cannot guarantee there are no traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
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.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. Service is timed around speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
