Taco bar hire in Hastings Old Town, served fresh
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle can’t reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. On the menu are pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and fresh salsas, and it’s a good fit for marquee parties and staff parties.
In and around Hastings Old Town, a taco bar works beside the truck or in a hall nearby. Where access is tight, the truck stays nearby and the station goes where your guests are, as long as we can unload within a short walk. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Questions from Hastings Old Town
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Clement?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Is it possible to have you in Linton Gardens?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
What happens if it rains?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. We offer dairy-free options, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.
What is a build-your-own taco bar?
We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and each guest builds their own. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. We agree the timings with your venue.
Comparing your options
Compared with a hog roast or carvery, a taco bar handles vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests without separate plates. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
