Taco bar hire in Lymington, served fresh
Truck and trailer bookings normally suit around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we’ll plan the taco bar around them. For leaving and retirement parties and anniversary parties, we can serve guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and pickled onions and toppings.
In a town like Lymington, a taco bar can go in a hall, a marquee or a garden. It can sit beside our truck or, if the truck can’t get in, on its own near your guests. We still need to park and unload nearby. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

About the menu
Toppings
Pickled onions, coriander, lime, lettuce and cheese.
Guacamole
Guacamole goes quickly on a taco bar, so we keep it topped up.
How the day works
On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. A December taco bar in Lymington will be in the dark from about 4:05pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. In late June, the light holds until around 9:25pm.

What we need at the venue
Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:
- The venue’s or landowner’s agreement
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before booking.

- Vegan fillings
- Tortilla chips

Can I do a taco night myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
A build-your-own taco bar in Lymington
Lymington is in Hampshire. We bring taco bar hire to gardens, halls and venues around Lymington and nearby villages. We cover 683 places across Hampshire. We cater right across the region, from Lymington to Southampton (about 13 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as Church of St. Thomas the Apostle, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. The A337 and B3054 run on or near Lymington, which makes the journey with the taco bar an easy one. Lymington is within about 5 miles of the New Forest National Park, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles cannot reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by. Coastal events near Lymington, within about a mile of the sea, bring wind into the planning. Tell us where the taco bar would go and where we can park to unload.
Anywhere in SO41, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on High Street, The Square and Priestlands Place. Being close to the A337 and B3054, Lymington is simple for us to get to with the truck or trailer for your event. Close by, we cover events in Pennington (1 mile south-west), Walhampton (1 mile east), Lower Pennington (1 mile south), Warborne (1 mile north) and Boldre (2 miles north).

How it compares
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
