Taco bar hire in Putney, from our truck or trailer
With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. It works well for birthday parties and wedding evening food, serving a build-your-own taco bar, fresh salsas and burrito bowls.
From an office courtyard to a hired room, a taco bar in Putney needs space for a table and a queue. Tell us where we can stop to unload, and about stairs, lifts or narrow doors, as London parking takes planning. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- What the venue already provides
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food

Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

For planners, venues and organisers
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Have tables and seats ready for guests to eat at
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
We arrive with time to unload and set the bar up before guests eat.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.
FAQs for Putney
What about parking in Putney?
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.
We’re having a ceremony at Polish Church of St John the Evangelist: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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’ll check the access.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.
Are plates and napkins included?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Occasions we cater for in Putney
Guests on special diets don’t need a separate meal, since corn tortillas and vegan fillings sit with everything else.
Whatever you’re celebrating in Putney, the serving truck can be a highlight. We can cater:
- Wedding meals
- Leaving dos
- Wedding evening food
- Company parties
Parks such as Bishops Park usually need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan.
Before you book anyone
- Whether VAT is included
- A clear list of what’s included
- How many staff are serving, and for how long
- How bad weather is handled
Should I do it myself?
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.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
The menu, item by item
Guacamole
Guacamole goes quickly on a taco bar.
Hot fillings
