FAQs for Blackstone
Is Blackstone close to London?
Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London.
Which station should guests use for Blackstone?
Guests can use Hassocks station, about 3.9 miles east of Blackstone.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Is the food made fresh?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will check the licensing with you.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
Do you cater in Blackstone?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Blackstone. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
How our taco bar hire works in Blackstone
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Nobody from your side needs to lift a spoon. At marquee parties and wedding day food, we can serve fresh salsas, warm corn and flour tortillas and guacamole and more.
Somewhere as small as Blackstone, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Before you choose a spot
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you. What matters most:
- Power and water, which we confirm when you book
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- Shelter from rain and sun for an outdoor bar
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Popular choices
- Salsas and guacamole
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Vegan fillings
- Tortilla chips
Should I do it 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.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

What else we do in Blackstone
How we price taco bar hire
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many staff you need
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Parking and the route in
- The number of people
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- What power and water the site has
- The date and time of the event
- What you’d like on the menu
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just fill in our quote form.
How it works
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. A December taco bar in Blackstone will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Share a few details about the event.
- We send a sample spread and a quote.
- We check power, water and access with your venue.
- We arrive, unload and lay out warm tortillas, fillings and toppings.
- At the end, we take everything away.
Before we arrive
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Planning a taco bar in Blackstone
Blackstone is about 5 miles west of Burgess Hill, in West Sussex. We serve at events in homes, gardens and venues in Blackstone and the surrounding area. We serve in 371 places in West Sussex. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 8 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as The Parish Church of St Bartholomew, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Venues in and around the South Downs National Park, within about 6 miles of Blackstone, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go.
