Taco bar hire for Newchurch events
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you’re booking both
- A clear area in front of the station
- A sheltered spot if we’re serving outside
Out-of-the-way places like Newchurch take a little more planning, so let us know about tracks, gates and power in good time.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Taco bar hire in Newchurch, from our food truck or trailer
The toppings are where guests get creative: pickled onions, coriander, lime, shredded lettuce and cheese, agreed with you in advance. It suits company parties and back-garden gatherings, with a build-your-own taco bar, guacamole and warm corn and flour tortillas.
For a rural spot like Newchurch, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Your questions about taco bar hire in Newchurch
Do you cater in villages like Newchurch?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Which station should guests use for Newchurch?
The closest is Sandown station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

It can serve the wedding meal, the evening or both. Timings are agreed with you and your venue.

Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
Is the taco bar staffed?

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
