The process
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. In Harefield, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is usually served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
How to prepare
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

FAQs for Harefield
Which station is closest to Harefield?
Guests can use Bitterne station, about 1.5 miles west of Harefield.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St James?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, but we cannot promise an allergen-free kitchen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us first.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you to suit your day.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
Comparing your options
Pizza is the usual crowd-pleaser, but a taco bar lets every guest design their own plate. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- Every guest catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- We cover Harefield and the whole of Southampton

About the menu
Guacamole
Freshly made guacamole with lime.
Toppings
The toppings are where guests make each taco their own, and dairy-free choices are kept apart.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
