Taco bar hire for your event in Tooting Bec
For a bigger spread, burrito bowls, nachos or quesadillas can sit alongside the tacos. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added, with licensing checked with you. Popular choices include warm corn and flour tortillas, a build-your-own taco bar and pickled onions and toppings, which works well for wedding day food and marquee parties.
In a London neighbourhood like Tooting Bec, a taco bar is handy when the truck cannot reach the garden or the room. We set up a station staffed by our team, where guests build their own tacos. We still need to park and unload close by, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension. Like all of Greater London, Tooting Bec is inside the ULEZ. You will know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Planning the serving area
We’ll agree the spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Space for a line of guests at the bar
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
In Tooting Bec, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
We get there early enough to unload, lay out the table and heat everything through.
A wider range of salsas suits guests who like it mild and those who like it hot.

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
Can I do a taco night myself?
