Taco bar hire in Lidsey

Taco bar hire in Lidsey, served fresh

Toppings make the bar: pickled onions, coriander, lime, shredded lettuce and cheese, depending on the menu you choose. At office lunches and retirement parties, we can serve burrito bowls, warm corn and flour tortillas and guacamole for your guests.

In a hamlet or village like Lidsey, a barn or marquee can shelter a taco bar from the weather. We set up the station and our team runs it; tell us about access and parking. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Lidsey questions

How far is Lidsey from central London?

It’s about 53 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.

Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?

Yes. The church itself is not 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’ll check the access.

Can you keep it mild?

That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

What’s on the menu?

Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

What about power on site?

Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.

Do you provide drinks?

Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we will check the licensing with you.

Do you have dairy-free options?

We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.

What guest numbers do you cater for?

Our service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the bar around them.

Before you choose a spot

We will be honest if a space will not work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • A short, clear path for carrying the bar in
  • Details of power and water near the bar
  • Space for a serving table on level ground

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

On the menu in Lidsey

  • Two to four fillings
  • Pickled onions and toppings
  • Vegan fillings

Why choose taco bar hire in Lidsey?

The bar becomes a meeting point: guests compare fillings and swap topping ideas as they go.

If you’re planning any of these, we can help:

  • Wedding evening food
  • Anniversary parties
  • Barn and marquee parties
  • Milestone birthdays

Before you plan a taco bar in The Brooks Local Nature Reserve, find out who manages it, as catering and unloading there both need their agreement.

What your quote should include

  • How late numbers can change
  • How many staff are serving, and for how long
  • How each diet is kept separate
  • Any travel, parking or access charges

Our caterer checklist

How it compares

If you want food that feels sociable but still well run, a taco bar is a strong choice for your event. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.

What we offer in Lidsey

  • Allergen information for every dish
  • Options for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests
  • Events in Lidsey and across West Sussex
  • Menus chosen with you

Dietary needs and planning tips

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:

  • Tell us when guests should eat
  • Put guests with serious allergies in touch with us early
  • Ask the venue where we can park to unload
  • Tell us how many children are coming

Fillings are kept hot and tortillas warmed in batches.

Our truck or trailer can serve later in the day, after the taco bar.

About the menu

Vegan fillings

Spiced mushroom, or black bean and sweet potato.

Warm tortillas

Soft corn and flour tortillas, kept warm. Corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests.

Should I do it myself?

Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.

Lidsey: venues, access and set-up

Lidsey is about 2 miles north-east of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. Give us the address of your event in Lidsey, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up. Lidsey is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover.

Around Lidsey, historic houses include Goodwood House (4.9 miles north-west). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our truck or trailer parks further off. If you are celebrating after a service at a church like The Parish Church of St Mary, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission. Coastal events near Lidsey, within about 3 miles of the sea, bring wind into the planning. Tell us where the taco bar would go and where we can park to unload.

This part of West Sussex takes in PO22. Whether your event is on Lidsey Road and Sack Lane or anywhere nearby, we can bring taco bar hire there, given access. If your venue is just outside Lidsey, we also cover Shripney (1 mile south-west), Westergate (1 mile north), Eastergate (1 mile north), West Barnham (1 mile north-east) and Barnham (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also cater in Worthing (12 miles east), Chichester (5 miles west), Selsey (8 miles south-west), Littlehampton (6 miles east), Lancing (15 miles east) and Emsworth (12 miles west).

Well-known places in the area include Tote Copse Castle (1.6 miles north-west) and Bognor Regis Museum (2.6 miles south).

  • Schools near Lidsey include St Philip Howard Catholic High School (1.3 miles north-east)

Step by step

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in Lidsey until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is typically served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan good lighting over the station.

  1. Send us the date, venue and 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. When everyone has eaten, we pack up.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want service to start
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Getting a price

Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, drop us a line using the enquiry form.

Prices and what affects them

Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Serving staff
  • The number of people
  • Your choice of food and drinks
  • Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • A photo of the space, if it is a garden or field
  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • The address or venue name
  • Expected numbers

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will come back with a clear quote.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
