Taco bar hire in Lewisham
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- Space for a serving table on level ground
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
In Lewisham, 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.

Taco bar hire for your event in Lewisham
The toppings are where guests get creative: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, depending on the menu you choose. It works well for anniversary parties and company parties, serving guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
In a London neighbourhood like Lewisham, a taco bar is handy when the truck can’t reach the garden or the room. We set up a station staffed by our team, where 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. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Questions from Lewisham
Could the taco bar go somewhere in Lewisham 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.
What’s the nearest station to Lewisham for guests?
Lewisham station, in Lewisham itself.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
What do you serve?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.

Step by step
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your event. In Lewisham, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is usually served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Contact us with your date and headcount.
- We agree a menu that covers every diet.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
