Taco bar hire in St George in the East
Taco bar hire for your event in St George in the East
Our taco bar travels to events across St George in the East and the surrounding area: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices, wherever there is room for the table. We serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, warm corn and flour tortillas and burrito bowls, and it suits retirement parties and birthday parties.
In St George in the East, a hired hall, a courtyard or a garden without drive access can still host a taco bar. A taco bar station can be set up away from the truck, with the venue’s agreement, and the route from our parking spot to the station needs to be clear. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- Space for a line of guests at the bar
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
St George in the East is in London, inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, which covers all of Greater London, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays, off-street space or a parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Popular choices
Vegan fillings
Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own.
Warm tortillas
Corn and flour tortillas, warmed through in batches. The corn ones suit gluten-free guests.
FAQs for St George in the East
Which station should guests use for St George in the East?
Guests can use Shadwell station, which is right in St George in the East.
What about parking in St George in the East?
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.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we will keep their options separate.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Is the food very hot?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.
What taco bar hire costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Travel, parking and access
- Timings and hours
- What the venue already provides
- How many guests we are serving
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of where we’d park
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Expected numbers
- What you’d like on the menu
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
