About our taco bar hire in Sandy Down
For a bigger spread, burrito bowls, nachos or quesadillas can sit alongside the tacos. Margaritas and aguas frescas from our drinks bar can be added. For wedding evening food and engagement parties, we will put together a menu of slow-cooked fillings kept hot, pickled onions and toppings and guacamole.
Somewhere as small as Sandy Down, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. 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. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Comparing your options
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. From the truck, we put each order together; at the taco bar, guests do the building. Comparing caterers?

Your questions about taco bar hire in Sandy Down
Which station is closest to Sandy Down?
Guests can use Brockenhurst station, about 1.6 miles north of Sandy Down.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
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.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Tell us about your space and numbers and we will recommend how to serve.
Is a taco bar right for a wedding?
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.
Is the taco bar staffed?
We set up and stay to keep the bar hot and stocked through service.

What we need at the venue

- Permission from the venue for us to set up
- Cover overhead if the bar is outdoors
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Two to four fillings
- Salsas and guacamole

Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Working with your venue
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
