Occasions we cater for in Highleigh

Guests on special diets do not need a separate meal, since corn tortillas and vegan fillings sit with everything else.

Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. In Highleigh, you could book us for occasions like:

  • Evening wedding receptions
  • Barn and marquee parties
  • Team socials
  • Wedding meals

After a christening or wedding at a church such as St Mary Our Lady Sidlesham, a taco bar at a hall or garden nearby lets guests build their own tacos.

Choosing a Mexican caterer

How our taco bar hire works in Highleigh

Truck and trailer bookings normally suit 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 slow-cooked fillings kept hot, burrito bowls and pickled onions and toppings, and it suits back-garden gatherings and wedding meals.

Near Highleigh, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Highleigh questions

Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?

We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.

How far is Highleigh from central London?

It is about 59 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?

We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.

Do you have vegan options?

Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.

Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.

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 you keep it mild?

It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?

A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. Service is timed around speeches and photos. There is more in our taco bar guide.

About the menu

Vegan fillings

A vegan filling sits on the bar with the rest, not an afterthought.

Guacamole

Guacamole goes quickly on a taco bar.

What we need at the venue

Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We look for:

  • Permission from the venue for us to set up
  • Room nearby to park and unload our vehicle
  • A clear area in front of the station

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

Popular choices

  • Salsas and guacamole
  • Tortilla chips
  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Vegan fillings
  • Two to four fillings
  • Corn and flour tortillas

DIY taco night versus a caterer

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Diets, allergies and planning

Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To make it work smoothly:

  • Ensure guests have somewhere to sit
  • Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
  • Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
  • Include a dietary question on your invitations

Our staff stand behind the bar to top up dishes and help guests about fillings and allergens.

Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.

Working with your venue

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Highleigh? Service from a truck or trailer is quick, even for a crowd, and the menu can suit most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

What happens on the day

Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we will adjust where we can. Around midsummer it stays light in Highleigh until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.

  1. Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
  2. We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
  3. The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
  4. On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
  5. We clear the bar away after service.

Before we arrive

  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
