Taco bar hire in Telegraph Hill, served fresh

The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Building your own is quick, which keeps the line moving, and nobody waits long. Popular choices include pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for family celebrations and wedding day food.

From an office courtyard to a hired room, a taco bar in Telegraph Hill 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 food truck or trailer.

Questions from Telegraph Hill

Our venue in Telegraph Hill has no vehicle access: can we still have a taco bar?

Generally, if the venue agrees to a staffed station. We still need to park and unload nearby, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension.

Which station should guests use for Telegraph Hill?

Telegraph Hill has its own station: Brockley station.

Are plates and napkins included?

We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?

Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.

How long are you on site?

We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.

How is the food prepared?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

What if a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot?

It can go beside the truck or trailer, or somewhere a vehicle can’t reach. We need a nearby place to unload, plus the venue’s agreement.

Who books taco bar hire in Telegraph Hill?

It feels relaxed without being scruffy, because our staff keep the bar tidy and topped up through your event.

If you are planning any of these, we can help:

  • Barn parties
  • Office lunches
  • Family celebrations
  • Birthday parties

Nearby historic houses include Queen's House (2 miles north-east) and Kingswood House (2.9 miles south-west). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our truck or trailer parks further off.

Choosing a Mexican caterer

DIY taco night or a caterer?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

What we need at the venue

We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. The main points are:

  • Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
  • The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
  • Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together

London streets around Telegraph Hill can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.

Popular choices

  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Vegan fillings
  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Salsas and guacamole
  • Two to four fillings
  • Tortilla chips

Diets, allergies and planning

Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:

  • Include a vegan filling on the bar
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
  • Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day

If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you’re ready.

A wider range of salsas suits guests who like it mild and those who like it hot.

How it works

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Winter evenings in Telegraph Hill close in by about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.

  1. Contact us with your date and headcount.
  2. We agree a menu that covers every diet.
  3. We fix timings with you and the venue.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. Once service is over, we pack away.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
