Taco bar hire in Blackhill, served fresh
Toppings make the bar: pickled onions, coriander, lime, shredded lettuce and cheese, agreed with you in advance. At team lunches and birthday parties, we will put together a menu of pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas.
In a small place like Blackhill, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Salsas
A row of salsas, mild to hot, made for your event.
Guacamole
Guacamole goes quickly on a taco bar.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. A taco bar needs a serving spot, somewhere close to unload and the venue’s agreement, and power and water are confirmed with each booking. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you choose what goes in.
Why us?
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- Service planned around your numbers
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Quoted for your event

FAQs for Blackhill
Do you come to events in the New Forest National Park?

Which station is closest to Blackhill?
The closest is Romsey station, roughly 4 miles away.
Who looks after the taco bar?
The taco bar is served from a table or station by our staff, so you don’t need helpers. We pack it away afterwards.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not normally stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.
Is a taco bar right for a wedding?
A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. We fit it around your speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.

What else we do in Blackhill
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
- A flat spot for the taco-bar station
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we offer

- Tortilla chips
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas

- Two to four fillings
How the day works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. Winter evenings in Blackhill close in by about 4:00pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:25pm.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- We confirm the table spot and where we will unload.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- We clear the bar away after service.
Preparing for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve

Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about access, and we will let you know if it is a good fit.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.

- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance

- Tell us how many children are coming
We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.
Add burrito bowls for guests who’d rather skip tortillas.
