West Dulwich questions
Where would you park in West Dulwich?
It can be tricky, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. A parking suspension may be needed, and the whole of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Our venue in West Dulwich has no vehicle access: can we still have a taco bar?
Normally, 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.
What does taco bar hire cost?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
Can guests build their own tacos?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Is the taco bar staffed?
Our staff set up the bar, keep the fillings hot and top up the dishes.
How our taco bar hire works in West Dulwich
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. We serve pickled onions and toppings, fresh salsas and guacamole, which works well for barn parties and birthday parties.
Around West Dulwich, a taco bar suits venues and gardens that a food truck can’t get into. 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, West Dulwich is inside the ULEZ. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
