Taco bar hire for Battle events
About our taco bar hire in Battle
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. It suits christenings and family parties and wedding evening food, serving warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
For a place the size of Battle, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and guests build their own tacos. Tell us where we can park and unload. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Collect dietary needs with your replies
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
Indoors or under cover, the bar carries on whatever the weather, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.

A build-your-own taco bar in Battle
Battle is about 5 miles north of Bexhill-on-Sea, in East Sussex. From the centre of Battle 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, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Battle to Royal Tunbridge Wells (18 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as The Parish Church of St Mary, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. By road, Battle is on or near the A271 and A2100, so bringing the taco bar and our food truck or trailer is straightforward. Venues in and around the High Weald National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Battle, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our truck or trailer could go.
This part of East Sussex takes in TN33, so your event can be anywhere in it. From High Street, Market Road and Station Road or anywhere nearby, we can bring taco bar hire there, given access. You will find Battle on the A271 and A2100, which makes it straightforward to bring the truck or trailer. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Steven's Crouch (2 miles west), Netherfield (2 miles north-west), Mountfield (2 miles north), John's Cross (3 miles north) and Penhurst (3 miles west). Larger places within reach include Eastbourne (12 miles south-west), Hastings (5 miles south-east), Bexhill-on-Sea (5 miles south), Hailsham (11 miles west), St Leonards (5 miles south-east) and Polegate (12 miles south-west).
A little further out are Battle Museum of Local History (under half a mile north) and Conquest Hospital (4.3 miles south-east). Not far away are Church Wood and Robsack Wood and Senlac Hill.
- Local schools include Claverham Community College (0.7 miles west)
- Pubs nearby include The Abbey Hotel (within half a mile south-east)
Where the truck can go in Battle
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Popular choices

Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
The process
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Battle, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- You get a suggested taco-bar spread and a quote.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
- Our staff set up the station, keep the fillings hot and top up the bar through service.
- Once guests have eaten, we take down the bar and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Give us a contact for the day

Your questions about taco bar hire in Battle
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we will talk it through.
What space does a taco bar need?
Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. We confirm power and water when you book.
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 set up where a truck cannot get in?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
Comparing your options
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
