Taco bar hire for Nine Elms events
About our taco bar hire in Nine Elms
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too, with licensing checked with you. It suits office lunches and engagement and anniversary parties, with slow-cooked fillings kept hot, warm corn and flour tortillas and fresh salsas.
London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Nine Elms have no vehicle access to the room. A taco bar station can be set up away from the truck, with the venue’s agreement, and we need a short, clear route from where we unload. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

What taco bar hire costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- What the venue already provides
- Serving staff
- Distance and access to the venue
- How many guests we’re serving
Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- What power and water the site has
- The date and rough timings
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your menu ideas
The quickest way to a quote is to drop us a line using the enquiry form. Tell us about your event in Nine Elms, and we will put together a menu and price.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Your questions about taco bar hire in Nine Elms
Where would you park in Nine Elms?
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.
Our venue in Nine Elms has no vehicle access: can we still have a taco bar?
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.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you have gluten-free options?
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 do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will recommend how to serve.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Perfect for your event in Nine Elms
The bar can go where a vehicle cannot, like a barn, courtyard or hall, if the venue agrees.
Whatever you’re celebrating in Nine Elms, the serving truck can be a highlight. We’re happy to cater:
- Team socials
- Barn parties
- Christenings and family parties
- Wedding day food
If your garden is hard to reach, a hired hall or club around Nine Elms could take the taco bar instead.
What your quote should include
- Whether travel is included

What’s on the menu
Warm tortillas
Tortillas are the base of the bar. We warm them as the bar needs them.
Toppings
Lime, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Somewhere close by for our vehicle to park and unload
- Permission from the venue for us to set up
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
In Nine Elms, 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 you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
Menu ideas
- Salsas and guacamole
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Tortilla chips
- Vegan fillings
- Two to four fillings

We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Check where our vehicle can unload
- Tell us how many children are coming
