Taco bar hire in Burgess Hill, served fresh
A taco bar puts the whole spread on one table: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. At working lunches and summer garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of burrito bowls, fresh salsas and guacamole for your guests.
Some gardens in Burgess Hill can only be reached on foot, so we can park nearby, with permission, and set the taco bar up in the garden. Tell us how far it is from the parking spot to the garden. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Taco bar hire in Burgess Hill: local tips
Burgess Hill is about 9 miles north of Brighton, in West Sussex. Whether your event is in the middle of Burgess Hill or on the outskirts, taco bar hire works the same way: fresh service from our truck or trailer, every diet planned for and a clear quote. Burgess Hill is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Burgess Hill to Brighton (9 miles away).
By rail: Burgess Hill has its own station, Burgess Hill station. Nearby historic houses include Ockenden Manor (3.4 miles north). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. Venues in and around the South Downs National Park, within about 3 miles of Burgess Hill, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our food truck or trailer could go.
Here we cover the RH15 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. Local streets include Church Road, Station Road and Lower Church Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Being close to the A273 and B2036, Burgess Hill is simple for us to get to with the truck or trailer for your event. For events just outside Burgess Hill, we cover Jacob's Post (1 mile west), World's End (1 mile north-east), Abbotsford (1 mile north-west), Goddards Green (2 miles west) and Hurst Wickham (2 miles south-west).

Being one of West Sussex’s larger places, Burgess Hill has plenty of venues and spaces for events, though town-centre access for a truck or trailer needs planning.

Should I do it myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
The menu, item by item
Hot fillings
Fillings cooked ahead and kept hot, perhaps chicken tinga, birria or carnitas.
Salsas
Fresh salsas, from a mild tomato salsa to something hotter.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. In Burgess Hill, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is generally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- We confirm the table spot and where we’ll unload.
- On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Find out what power and water are available
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
Getting a price
