Our staff stand behind the bar to top up dishes and help guests about fillings and allergens.

Questions from Bitterne Park
Which station is closest to Bitterne Park?
The closest is Bitterne station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Could you come to a seaside event near Bitterne Park?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades typically need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
How much does taco bar hire cost?
We quote for each taco bar, based on numbers, fillings, the venue and timings. Contact us for a quote.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
