Taco bar hire near South Godstone
Taco bar hire for your event in South Godstone
We run the taco bar ourselves: warming tortillas, keeping fillings hot and refilling the salsas as they go. Your hosts can stay with their guests. It works well for evening receptions and company parties, with guacamole, warm corn and flour tortillas and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
In a small place like South Godstone, 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 serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Questions from South Godstone
Could you serve in Tilburstow Hill?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St Stephen?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
How does a taco bar work?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms, served alongside the meat options.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including South Godstone.
How much is a food truck for an event?
We quote for each event, based on what you actually need. Tell us your date and numbers and we’ll reply with a quote.
Can you plan for allergies?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.

Working with your venue

We cater right across the region, from South Godstone to Crawley (about 10 miles away).

DIY taco night versus a caterer
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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
What happens on the day
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Evenings in South Godstone stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm. Once it gets dark, guests need to see what they’re adding to their tacos.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- We confirm the table spot and where we’ll unload.
- On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Taco bar hire or something else?
Plated meals depend on a kitchen and a team of waiting staff. For a taco bar, we need a serving spot, a nearby place to unload and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Why book with us
