FAQs for South Harting
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
How big an event can you cater?
Our truck and trailer service generally suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
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.
Taco bar hire for your event in South Harting
Truck and trailer bookings typically suit around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Tell us your numbers and we will plan the taco bar around them. On the menu are slow-cooked fillings kept hot, warm corn and flour tortillas and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for leaving and retirement parties and family get-togethers.
In a small place like South Harting, 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, though we still need to unload within a short walk. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.
Catering for every guest
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Have anyone with a severe allergy speak to us first
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
Each dish is labelled, and allergen information is kept at the bar.
Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.
The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Around midsummer it stays light in South Harting until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer taco bar outside normally runs in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Contact us with your date and headcount.
- We agree a menu that covers every diet.
- Nearer the date, we confirm timings and the serving spot.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- We clear our station when service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
