About our taco bar hire in Alfriston
Add burrito bowls, loaded nachos or quesadillas if you’d like more choice. Our drinks bar can be booked with it too, with licensing checked with you. Popular choices include a build-your-own taco bar, burrito bowls and pickled onions and toppings, which works well for engagement and anniversary parties and working lunches.
Somewhere as small as Alfriston, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If the truck cannot get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

About the menu
Toppings
Toppings let guests finish their tacos their way, and dairy-free choices are kept apart.
Guacamole
Guacamole goes quickly on a taco bar.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

Taco bar hire in Alfriston: local tips
Alfriston is about 3 miles north-east of Seaford, in East Sussex. From the centre of Alfriston to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cover 289 places in East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 13 miles away.
After a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St. Andrew, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos. By rail: the nearest station is Berwick (Sussex) station, about 2.2 miles north. Venues in and around the South Downs National Park, within about a mile of Alfriston, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go. With the sea within about 4 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze do not mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.
