Taco bar hire in Chidham
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen, waiting staff and fixed courses. 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. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
Why us?
- We cover Chidham and the whole of West Sussex
- Every guest catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- A plan agreed before the day

About our taco bar hire in Chidham
The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily, and nobody waits long. For team lunches and staff parties, we’ll put together a menu of fresh salsas, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and burrito bowls and more.
In a hamlet or village like Chidham, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

Taco bars for events around Chidham
Chidham is about 4 miles west of Chichester, in West Sussex. Whether your event is in the middle of Chidham or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in all 371 towns and villages in West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages.
For guests coming by train, Nutbourne station is about 1 mile away. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like The Parish Church of St Mary, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. With the sea within about 6 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze do not mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.

The process
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends.

- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- We agree where the table goes and where our vehicle can unload.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.

Planning help
Working with your venue
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Count children separately
- Tell us when guests should eat
- Confirm a loading spot close to the bar
We arrive with time to unload and set the bar up before guests eat.
Tell us if you need plates and cutlery and we’ll set out the options in your quote.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
