Thames View Estate: venues, access and set-up
Thames View Estate is about 1 mile south-east of Barking, in Greater London. Across the IG11 area, we will come to your venue or site. We cater in 764 places across Greater London, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. You can also see our page for London, about 9 miles away.
Historic houses near Thames View Estate include Eastbury Manor House (0.5 miles north-west) and Valentines Mansion (3.5 miles north-west). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our food truck or trailer parks further off. Thinking of a taco bar in Mayesbrook Park? Catering in a public park typically needs the landowner’s permission, so check first.

Taco bar hire for your event in Thames View Estate
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too. It suits evening receptions and working lunches, with slow-cooked fillings kept hot, guacamole and fresh salsas.
In a London neighbourhood like Thames View Estate, a taco bar is handy when the truck can’t reach the garden or the room. Our staff set up a serving station on a table, and guests build their own tacos. We still have to unload nearby, so let us know about loading, permits and parking. Like all of Greater London, Thames View Estate is inside the ULEZ. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own.
Hot fillings
You might choose two or three fillings, with at least one vegan. You choose them with us.
The process
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. Winter evenings in Thames View Estate close in by about 3:50pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.

- We agree a menu that covers every diet.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Thames View Estate
What about parking in Thames View Estate?
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 it possible to have you in Mayesbrook Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. We fit it around your speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
What access do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. We offer dairy-free options.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
A standard buffet often sits out cold. Our fillings stay hot and the bowls are topped up as guests come back. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What you get with us
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- A menu built around your guests
- Catering across Greater London, including Thames View Estate
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
Read how we price and the cost guide.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Count children separately
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we will set out the options in your quote.
