Taco bar hire in Newington Butts, served fresh
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily, and nobody waits long. It suits wedding meals and team lunches, serving pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and guacamole.
From an office courtyard to a hired room, a taco bar in Newington Butts needs space for a table and a queue. Let us know about the loading point and any stairs, lifts or narrow doorways, as London parking takes planning. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Planning for every diet
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Ensure one filling is vegan
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
After the last plate, we take the bar down and leave the spot tidy.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.

Is taco bar hire right for your event?

A taco bar needs a serving spot, somewhere close to unload and the venue’s agreement, and power and water are confirmed with each booking. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
Why book with us
- Menus chosen with you
- Fast service, even with a queue

How the day works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. Around midsummer it stays light in Newington Butts until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Tell us the date, the venue, how many guests and any diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Let us know the timings for the day
