How our taco bar hire works in Inner Avenue
We can serve the taco bar next to the truck or trailer, or as a separate station. Where a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot, we unload nearby and set the table up there, with the venue’s agreement. It works well for evening wedding receptions and marquee parties, serving pickled onions and toppings, burrito bowls and fresh salsas.
Near Inner Avenue, a hall or club may suit a taco bar if your own space is tight; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Taco bar hire in Inner Avenue: local tips
Inner Avenue is about 1 mile west of Southampton, in Southampton. Tell us where your event in Inner Avenue will be, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up before the day. We cover 40 places across Southampton, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Close to Inner Avenue are historic houses such as Southampton Tudor House and Garden (1.2 miles south) and Medieval Merchant's House (1.3 miles south). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our food truck or trailer parks further off. Guests arriving without a car will want to know that the nearest station is St Denys station, about 0.6 miles north-east. Inner Avenue is within about 8 miles of the New Forest National Park, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles can’t reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by. The coast is within about 2 miles of Inner Avenue, so for a seaside taco bar we plan around the wind. A sheltered spot for the station helps, and seafront sites generally need permission.
We cater events across SO14, SO15 and SO17 and the streets around it. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on Alma Road, Rose Road and Lawn Road or the roads around them. Other places close to Inner Avenue for taco bar hire include Southampton (1 mile east), Portswood (1 mile north-east), St Denys (1 mile north-east), Bitterne Manor (1 mile east) and St Mary's (1 mile south). Further out, we also cater in Thornhill (3 miles east), Eling (4 miles west), Rownhams (3 miles north-west), Weston (3 miles south-east), Hounsdown (4 miles west) and Nursling (3 miles north-west).
Nearby you will also find Royal South Hants Hospital (less than half a mile south-east) and Marlands Shopping Centre (0.8 miles south). Open spaces near Inner Avenue include Netley Common.
- Nearby schools include St Anne's Catholic School (under half a mile south-west) and St Mary's Independent School (1.4 miles east)
- Nearby, you will find The Guide Dog pub (less than half a mile east)
What taco bar hire costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Serving staff
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The number of people
- The menu you choose
The price depends on guest numbers, the menu and how long you’d like us to serve, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.
What to tell us
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- A picture of where we’d park
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your date and when you want service to start
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, use our quote form.
Inner Avenue questions
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the New Forest National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Saint Mary's?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Is the food made fresh?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
How does a taco bar work?
A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests build their own tacos. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
How much does taco bar hire cost in Inner Avenue?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and where your event is. Send us the details for a quote.
How spicy is the food?
It is up to you: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
What space does a taco bar need?
Tell us about the venue and the spot you have in mind, and we’ll check it works. The venue’s agreement is needed too.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Before you choose a spot
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
- Space for a line of guests at the bar
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.
On the menu in Inner Avenue
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Salsas and guacamole
- Tortilla chips
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Two to four fillings
- Vegan fillings
