About our taco bar hire in Mount Pleasant

The toppings are where guests get creative: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema. At team socials and milestone birthdays, we can serve pickled onions and toppings, fresh salsas and warm corn and flour tortillas for your guests.

In a small place like Mount Pleasant, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, as long as we can unload within a short walk. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

Catering for every guest

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
  • Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Put allergies in writing for us

We warm tortillas in batches and keep the fillings hot, so the bar stays fresh from the first plate to the last.

Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.

Space, access and the venue

The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:

  • A parking or loading spot near the serving area
  • Easy access from where we unload to the table
  • Room for guests to queue along the table

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What we offer

  • Corn and flour tortillas
  • Tortilla chips
  • Two to four fillings
  • Vegan fillings
  • Salsas and guacamole
  • Pickled onions and toppings

A build-your-own taco bar in Mount Pleasant

Mount Pleasant is about 4 miles north of Lewes, in East Sussex. Give us the address of your event in Mount Pleasant, and we will plan the journey and set-up before the day. Mount Pleasant is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we can bring taco bar hire. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 10 miles away.

Around Mount Pleasant, historic houses include Glyndebourne (4.1 miles south-east) and Anne of Cleves House (4.5 miles south). Estates and listed houses set their own rules for caterers, so check where a taco bar station and our vehicle would be permitted before you book. When the service is at a church such as St Bartholomews, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Mount Pleasant is within about 5 miles of the South Downs 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.

Should I do it myself?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Guests can use Cooksbridge station, about 2.5 miles south-west of Mount Pleasant.

We can, as long as the venue agrees. The station needs room for a queue, and we need to park and unload close to the door.

Do you do parties at home?

Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.

What do you need at the venue?

Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.

How the day works

Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Planning an evening taco bar in Mount Pleasant? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:15pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. After dusk, lights over the station help guests build their tacos.

  1. Contact us with your date and headcount.
  2. We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
  3. Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our station when service ends.

Getting ready for the day

  • Ask the venue about power and water
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
  • Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
