Taco bar hire in Midanbury
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
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.
Taco bar hire in Midanbury, served fresh
Fillings are agreed with you, perhaps carnitas, chicken tinga or birria, with a vegan filling like black bean and sweet potato or spiced mushroom. It suits wedding breakfasts and birthday parties, serving warm corn and flour tortillas, burrito bowls and guacamole.
For a place the size of Midanbury, a garden or a hall nearby can suit a taco bar. We set up and run the station, and guests choose their own fillings and toppings. Let us know about the drive and parking. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

A vegan filling sits on the bar with the rest, not an afterthought.
How we price taco bar hire
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- What the venue already provides
- The menu you choose
- How long we’re needed on site
- How many guests we are serving
Your choice of food and drinks affects the price, so share your ideas with us. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- Your menu ideas
- The venue or postcode
- Diets and allergies you know about

How it works
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Winter evenings in Midanbury close in by about 4:00pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us about your event and your guests.
- We send a sample spread and a quote.
- Access, power and water are agreed beforehand.
- We set up the station and keep everything hot.
- At the end, we take everything away.

Taco bar hire in Midanbury: local tips
Midanbury is about 1 mile east of Southampton, in Southampton. Anywhere in SO18, we can serve your guests, as long as there is access. Midanbury is one of 40 places in Southampton we cover.
When the service is at a church such as Church of Ascension, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Nearby historic houses include South Stoneham House (0.9 miles north-west) and Southampton Tudor House and Garden (2.6 miles south-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. Coastal events near Midanbury, 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.
Anywhere in SO18, SO17 and SO19, we can bring taco bar hire to you. We can cater an event on streets such as Neva Road, Avon Road and Bond Road. We also serve at events in Bitterne Park (1 mile south-west), Townhill Park (1 mile north-east), Chartwell Green (1 mile north-east), Mansbridge (1 mile north) and Bitterne (1 mile south). Larger places within reach include Shirley (3 miles west), Regents Park (3 miles west), Maybush (4 miles west), Coxford (3 miles west), Freemantle (3 miles west) and Lordswood (3 miles west). Being one of Southampton’s larger places, Midanbury has plenty of venues and spaces for events, though town-centre access for a truck or trailer needs planning.
A little further out are Marlands Shopping Centre (2.3 miles south-west) and Netley Castle (3.4 miles south). The countryside around Midanbury includes Netley Common.
- Schools near Midanbury include The Gregg School (less than half a mile north-east) and Townhill Junior School (0.5 miles north-east)
- Pubs nearby include Bitterne Park Hotel (0.5 miles west)
Working with your venue
Events in public spaces, like parks, usually need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Midanbury questions
Is Midanbury close to London?
Roughly 68 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Is it possible to have you in Riverside Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
Truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests, while smaller parties are looked at case by case. Share your headcount and we will size the bar to suit.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Every menu is agreed with you. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
The taco bar can be the wedding breakfast, the evening food or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue, and guests build their own plates.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
