How the day works

From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. From late May to late September, sunset in East Grinstead moves from about 8:50pm to 7:05pm. Let us know if an outdoor station will run after dark, and we will talk about lighting.

  1. Tell us the date, the venue, how many guests and any diets.
  2. We suggest fillings, salsas and toppings for the bar and send a quote.
  3. Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
  4. We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
  5. After the last tacos, we clear the station away.

How to prepare

  • Ask the venue about power and water
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
  • Give us your final numbers and diets

About our taco bar hire in East Grinstead

Our truck and trailer service generally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we will size the taco bar to match. It works well for milestone birthdays and working lunches, with slow-cooked fillings kept hot, burrito bowls and guacamole.

A hall or club in East Grinstead can host a taco bar indoors, if the venue allows it. We need space for the station, a way in from where we park and room for a queue. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.

Diets, allergies and planning

Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
  • Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
  • Choose at least one vegan filling
  • Set out seating near the bar

We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.

Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers, quoted for your event.
