Taco bar hire for Underhill events
Before you choose a spot
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Room for guests to queue along the table
- Room nearby to park and unload our vehicle
London streets around Underhill 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.
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we offer
- Salsas and guacamole
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Vegan fillings
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips
How our taco bar hire works in Underhill
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily. We serve guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and pickled onions and toppings, and it suits engagement and anniversary parties and birthday celebrations.
London gardens are often reached only through the house, and many venues in Underhill have no vehicle access to the room. The station can go where the truck cannot, as long as the venue agrees, and the route from our parking spot to the station needs to be clear. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Step by step
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. A December taco bar in Underhill will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- We confirm the table spot and where we’ll unload.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- We clear the bar away after service.
How to prepare
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Find out what power and water are available
- Share the running order, including any speeches

Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Ensure one filling is vegan
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
If the schedule slips, tell us and we will hold everything hot until you’re ready.
A wider range of salsas suits guests who like it mild and those who like it hot.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
Common questions in Underhill
Can you set up a taco bar where your truck cannot park in Underhill?
Usually, if the venue agrees to a staffed station. We still need somewhere close by to unload, and in London that may mean a loading bay or a parking suspension.
Is it possible to have you in Highlands Gardens?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will suggest mild options.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
Next to a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar caters for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free guests from one table. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.
