How our taco bar hire works in Puddle Dock
For a bigger spread, burrito bowls, nachos or quesadillas can sit alongside the tacos. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too, with licensing checked with you. On the menu are burrito bowls, guacamole and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, which works well for wedding meals and team socials.
London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Puddle Dock 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. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Puddle Dock questions
We are having a ceremony at Moor Lane Church: can you cater afterwards?
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.
Where would you park in Puddle Dock?
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.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue.
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 check every dish and give allergen information.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
How does a taco bar work?
We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and each guest builds their own. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen, waiting staff and fixed courses. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
