Taco bar hire near Cote

Taco bar hire for your event in Cote

The bar can stand beside our truck or trailer, or on its own. Where a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. It suits wedding day food and family get-togethers, serving pickled onions and toppings, fresh salsas and a build-your-own taco bar.

Near Cote, a marquee or barn makes a good home for a taco bar. Our staff set up the station and run it through service; tell us about access and parking. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

How it works

Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our food truck or trailer, and get on with serving. In Cote, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan good lighting over the station.

  1. Share a few details about the event.
  2. We send a sample spread and a quote.
  3. We check power, water and access with your venue.
  4. We set up the station and keep everything hot.
  5. Afterwards, we pack down and leave the area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough

  • A sheltered spot if we are serving outside

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Dietary needs and planning tips

A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:

  • Ensure guests have somewhere to sit
  • Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
  • Include a dietary question on your invitations
  • Decide where the table goes before the day

We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot.

Add burrito bowls for guests who’d rather skip tortillas.

Planning a taco bar in Cote

Cote is about 2 miles north-west of Worthing, in West Sussex. For taco bar hire in Cote, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. Cote is one of 371 places in West Sussex we cover. We cater right across the region, from Cote to Brighton (about 13 miles away).

If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like St Symphorian's Church, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. Parks such as Clapham Wood generally need the owner’s agreement for catering, even without a truck on the grass, so ask before you plan. With the South Downs National Park about 7 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Cote. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload. The coast is within about 4 miles of Cote, so for a seaside taco bar we plan around the wind. A sheltered spot for the station helps, and seafront sites usually need permission.

Anywhere in BN13, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. We also serve at events in Durrington (1 mile south-east), High Salvington (1 mile north-east), Clapham (1 mile west), Patching (2 miles west) and Findon (2 miles north). Larger places within reach include Bognor Regis (12 miles west), Burgess Hill (15 miles north-east), Littlehampton (5 miles south-west), Shoreham-by-Sea (7 miles east), Lancing (4 miles east) and Rustington (4 miles south-west).

Other landmarks nearby include The Acre (2.8 miles south-east) and Old Castle (1.7 miles south-east). Not far away are Highdown Hill.

  • Nearby schools include Palatine Primary School (1.3 miles south) and Durrington High School (1.4 miles south-east)
  • Local pubs include Coach And Horses Public House (under half a mile south-west)

Your questions about taco bar hire in Cote

Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Cote?

Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.

Could you come to a seaside event near Cote?

Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

How does taco bar hire work?

Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.

Is the food made fresh?

Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

What do you serve?

Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

Do you give allergen information?

Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.

Do you come to Cote?

Yes, we do. We serve at events in Cote and across West Sussex. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
