Halls, marquees and gardens in Selsey can all suit a taco bar. It can stand next to the truck, or on its own where the truck can’t reach. We still need to park and unload nearby. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

Selsey questions
Could you come to a seaside event near Selsey?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Peter's Church?
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’ll check the access.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there’s access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Check where our vehicle can unload
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
- Give us separate numbers for children
Each dish is labelled, and allergen information is kept at the bar.
Book the truck or trailer for evening food after a daytime taco bar, quoted with the rest.
How it works
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. In Selsey, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm 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.
- Contact us with your date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

What you get with us

- Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Prices and what affects them
Contact us for a quote, which reflects:
- The number of people
- Your choice of food and drinks
- How long we’re needed on site
- What the venue already provides
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of where we’d park
- What you’d like on the menu
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Space, access and the venue
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- A clear area in front of the station
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we offer
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Salsas and guacamole
