New Copse: your questions answered
Which station is closest to New Copse?
The closest is Alton station, roughly 4.3 miles away.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Andrew?
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 will check the access.
How does taco bar hire work?
We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and guests build their own tacos. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Is a taco bar good for vegans and gluten-free guests?
Keeping each dish separate makes mixed diets easier, but we can’t promise an allergen-free kitchen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will recommend how to serve.
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 will quote for your event. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Hampshire. See all areas.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

- Decide where the table goes before the day

Our staff stand behind the bar to top up dishes and help guests.

How it works
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. In New Copse, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We agree a menu that covers every diet.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- We clear our station when service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
