About our taco bar hire in Chilgrove

You choose the fillings with us, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, with a vegan filling like black bean and sweet potato or spiced mushroom. It works well for wedding meals and barn parties, with warm corn and flour tortillas, a build-your-own taco bar and pickled onions and toppings.

Near Chilgrove, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. We set up the station and our team runs it. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, with allergen information for everything we serve.

Planning for every diet

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Include a dietary question on your invitations
  • Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
  • Make sure one filling is vegan
  • Confirm a loading spot close to the bar

Once guests have eaten, we clear the table and pack up and leave the spot tidy.

Tell us if you need plates and cutlery and we will confirm what’s possible in your quote.

Why choose taco bar hire in Chilgrove?

Historic houses near Chilgrove include West Dean House (1.6 miles south-east) and Uppark (4.4 miles north-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload.

Questions to ask before booking

Popular choices

Hot fillings

A few fillings give guests plenty of choice, including a vegan one. You choose them with us.

Warm tortillas

Soft corn and flour tortillas, kept warm so there is always one ready. The corn ones suit gluten-free guests.

Should I do it myself?

For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

What taco bar hire costs

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • How many guests we’re serving
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • Serving staff
  • Parking and the route in

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What to tell us

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
  • Your date and when you want service to start

Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Common questions in Chilgrove

Is Chilgrove close to London?

About 51 miles from central London, and we cover it.

Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

Is a taco bar right for a wedding?

The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We agree the timings with your venue, and guests build their own plates.

How spicy is the food?

The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.

What access do you need?

Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.

Do you do parties at home?

It depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.

Does the taco bar need the truck on site?

The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.

How much does taco bar hire cost?

We quote for each taco bar, based on numbers, fillings, the venue and timings. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

How it works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. Winter evenings in Chilgrove close in by about 4:00pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.

  1. Share a few details about the event.
  2. We send a sample spread and a quote.
  3. Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
  4. We set up the station and keep everything hot.
  5. At the end, we take everything away.

Before we arrive

  • Ask the venue about power and water
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
  • Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

How to get a price

To get a price, just drop us a line using the enquiry form. Tell us about your event in Chilgrove, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.
