Planning a taco bar in Staplecross
Staplecross is about 7 miles north of Hastings, in East Sussex. From the centre of Staplecross to the outskirts, taco bar hire works the same way: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Staplecross is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. Our nearest city page is Royal Tunbridge Wells, about 16 miles away.
Close to Staplecross are historic houses such as Durhamford Manor (2.4 miles south) and Great Dixter (2.8 miles north-east). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. If people are travelling in by rail, the nearest station is Robertsbridge station, about 3.1 miles west. With the High Weald National Landscape about 7 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Staplecross. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.

Local streets include Sheringham Close, Cricketers Field and Weald View; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

FAQs for Staplecross
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Will you travel to a small place like Staplecross?
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.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
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.
How does a taco bar work?
Each guest builds tacos from the fillings, salsas and toppings laid out. Our staff look after the bar throughout.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What affects the price in Staplecross
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- What’s on the menu
- Guest numbers
- The length of service
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

Catering for every guest
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Agree the serving spot with your venue early
- Include a vegan filling on the bar
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Plan the taco bar around speeches and timings
Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.
Add burrito bowls for guests who’d rather skip tortillas.
How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A December taco bar in Staplecross will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so set the station up where the lighting is good. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:15pm.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- We clear the bar away after service.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
How to get a price

Comparing your options
A taco bar and a truck serve the same food in different ways. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
