The process
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. Winter evenings in Wandsworth close in by about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- You get a suggested taco-bar spread and a quote.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- Our staff set up the station, keep the fillings hot and top up the bar through service.
- After the last tacos, we clear the station away.
Before we arrive
- Find out what power and water are available
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

About our taco bar hire in Wandsworth
You choose the fillings with us, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, with a vegan filling like black bean and sweet potato or spiced mushroom. It works well for back-garden gatherings and retirement parties, serving pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a London neighbourhood like Wandsworth, 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 need to park and unload close by, so tell us about loading bays, permits or a parking suspension. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

A few fillings give guests plenty of choice. You choose them with us.

Wandsworth questions
Can you set up a taco bar where your truck can’t park in Wandsworth?
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.
Which station should guests use for Wandsworth?
Wandsworth Town station, in Wandsworth itself.
Can you come to a private house?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.
How much is a taco bar?
There’s no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.

- Put allergies in writing for us
