- Wedding evening food

Taco bar hire in Bishopstoke, served fresh
Fillings are agreed with you, such as pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, plus a vegan choice such as spiced mushroom or black bean and sweet potato. It suits family get-togethers and staff parties, serving burrito bowls, pickled onions and toppings and fresh salsas.
Near Bishopstoke, a hall or club may suit a taco bar if your own space is tight; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Before you choose a spot
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
- Space for a line of guests at the bar
- The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
What we offer
- Two to four fillings
- Vegan fillings
- Tortilla chips
- Salsas and guacamole
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Corn and flour tortillas
Planning for every diet
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
- Count children separately
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Set out seating near the bar
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you are ready.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.
Planning a taco bar in Bishopstoke

Guests leaving a church like St Paul's could head to a nearby hall or garden where the taco bar is ready. By rail: the nearest station is Eastleigh station, about 1 mile west. The coast is within about 6 miles of Bishopstoke, so for a seaside taco bar we plan around the wind. A sheltered spot for the station helps, and seafront sites usually need permission.

Bishopstoke questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Lakeside Country Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Which station should guests use for Bishopstoke?
Eastleigh station, about 1 mile west of the centre.
Do you come to Bishopstoke?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Bishopstoke is within our area. To check your date, send a quick message through our quote form.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
It depends on the event and the timings. As a guide, our bookings generally fall around 50 to 400 guests, so tell us your numbers.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
What you get with us
- Allergen-aware menus
- Service planned around your numbers
- A clear quote
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Step by step
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. From late May to late September, sunset in Bishopstoke moves from about 8:55pm to 7:10pm. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.

- We confirm the table spot and where we’ll unload.
