Truck and trailer bookings normally suit around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we’ll plan the taco bar around them. At wedding meals and birthday parties, we will put together a menu of pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Crowdhill, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
Planning a taco bar in Crowdhill
Crowdhill is about 2 miles north-east of Eastleigh, in Hampshire. For an event in Crowdhill, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. Crowdhill is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we can bring taco bar hire. We cater right across the region, from Crowdhill to Southampton (about 6 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as Church of the Holy Trinity, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Nearby historic houses include South Stoneham House (4.4 miles south-west). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our truck or trailer parks further off.
We cover events in every part of SO50 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Chestnut Drive and Winchester Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Fisher's Pond (1 mile north), Nob's Crook (1 mile north-west), Colden Common (1 mile north-west), Lord's Wood (1 mile north-west) and Bishopstoke (1 mile south-west). Larger places within reach include Winchester (6 miles north), Gosport (14 miles south-east), Fareham (10 miles south-east), Horndean (14 miles east), Totton (10 miles south-west) and Chandler's Ford (4 miles west).
A little further out are Eastleigh Museum (2.3 miles west) and Moorgreen Hospital (3.6 miles south). Open spaces near Crowdhill include Twyford Down and Shawford Down.
- Nearby schools include The King's School Senior (1.3 miles south)
- Pubs nearby include The Fox & Hounds pub (under half a mile south)
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Popular choices
Hot fillings
A few fillings give guests plenty of choice, including a vegan one. You choose them with us.
Salsas
Salsa lets everyone pick their own heat.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. A December taco bar in Crowdhill will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.

Taco bar hire or something else?
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Why us?
- A menu built around your guests
- A plan agreed before the day
- Allergen-aware menus
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- A flat spot for the taco-bar station
- Room for the bar alongside the vehicle, if booked together
- Room for guests to queue along the table
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.
On the menu in Crowdhill
- Vegan fillings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips

Catering for every guest
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Count children separately
- Decide where the table goes before the day
- Send us allergy details in writing
- Make sure guests have somewhere to sit
Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.
Our drinks bar can sit alongside the taco bar with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas, with licensing checked with you.
