Taco bar hire in Gosport, from our truck or trailer
Our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the taco bar to match. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, warm corn and flour tortillas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it is a good fit for marquee parties and office lunches.
In a hamlet or village like Gosport, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. Our staff set up the station and run it through service. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
What happens on the day
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. Send us a photo of the space if you are unsure. From late May to late September, sunset in Gosport moves from about 8:55pm to 7:10pm. If the taco bar is outdoors and runs later, tell us what lighting the venue has.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Before the day, we confirm the serving spot, unloading, power and water with the venue.
- On the day our staff lay out the bar and keep it stocked while guests build their tacos.
