Taco bar hire in East End, served fresh
Our staff set up the taco bar and look after it through service: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Your hosts can stay with their guests. For wedding evening food and company parties, we will put together a menu of pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and a build-your-own taco bar.
In a hamlet or village like East End, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. 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 truck or trailer.
Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Travel, parking and access
- How many guests we’re serving
- How many staff you need
- Your choice of food and drinks
Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Your menu ideas
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, tell us about it on our contact page.
East End: venues, access and set-up
East End is about 3 miles north-east of Lymington, in Hampshire. For taco bar hire in East End, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards. We serve in all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 11 miles away.
If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like Church of St Mary, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. Historic houses near East End include Beaulieu Palace House (3.5 miles north-east). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. East End is within about 4 miles of the New Forest National Park, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles cannot reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by. With the sea within about 4 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze don’t mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.
This part of Hampshire takes in SO41. Your event could be at a home on Rowes Lane, Norleywood Road and Lymington Road. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Norleywood (1 mile north-west), Thorns Beach (2 miles east), Hamstead (4 miles south-east), Cranmore (5 miles south) and Bouldnor (5 miles south). Further out, we also cater in Gosport (15 miles east), Eastleigh (15 miles north-east), Fareham (14 miles north-east), Totton (10 miles north), Chandler's Ford (15 miles north) and Hedge End (13 miles north-east).
Well-known places in the area include Yarmouth Castle (4.7 miles south) and Lymington New Forest Hospital (2.7 miles west). Not far away are Boldre Foreshore.
How it works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. Winter evenings in East End close in by about 4:00pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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, and handles allergen information for you.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is 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.
