Taco bar hire in Keymer

Taco bar hire for your event in Keymer

The taco bar works for a wedding breakfast, a party or a working lunch. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily. We serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, fresh salsas and guacamole, and it suits staff parties and wedding day food.

In a smaller place like Keymer, a taco bar in your garden or a local hall keeps things simple. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Let us know about the drive and parking. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Whether you add a drinks bar or food
  • Plates, napkins and cutlery
  • How many staff you need
  • Your choice of food and drinks

Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. Every event gets its own quote.

What we need to know

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

Can I do a taco night myself?

You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Taco bar hire or something else?

If you want food that feels sociable but still well run, a taco bar suits events in Keymer well. Larger events can cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What we offer in Keymer

  • Served fresh from our food truck or trailer
  • Access, space and power checked in advance
  • Fast service, even with a queue
  • Allergen information for everything we serve

Common questions in Keymer

Can you cater a reception after a service at St Cosmas and St Damian Church?

Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.

What’s the nearest station to Keymer for guests?

Hassocks station, about 0.5 miles west of the centre.

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.

How much does taco bar hire cost?

There is no price list, because no two events are the same. Send us your details and we’ll quote for your event. See what Mexican catering costs for background.

Does the taco bar need the truck on site?

The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. Either way, we need to unload nearby and have the venue’s permission.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.

Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?

A taco bar works well for a relaxed wedding breakfast. We fit it around your speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Keymer.

Vegan fillings

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

Events we cater in Keymer

It is informal but still feels looked after, because our staff keep the bar tidy and topped up through your event.

Whatever the occasion, our food truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We are happy to cater:

  • Anniversary parties
  • Family celebrations
  • Marquee parties
  • Summer garden parties

If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like St Cosmas and St Damian Church, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission.

Questions to ask before you book

  • The wet-weather plan
  • What the caterer needs from your venue
  • Where to see their hygiene rating
  • How many staff are serving, and for how long

Questions to ask before booking

Organising for someone else?

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

How it works

Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not normally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December taco bar in Keymer will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
  3. We confirm the table spot and where we’ll unload.
  4. Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
  5. We clear the bar away after service.

Before we arrive

  • Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
