How our taco bar hire works in Tangmere

With a taco bar, everything is laid out in one place: warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Guests pick up a plate and build their own. At family celebrations and evening wedding receptions, we will put together a menu of pickled onions and toppings, slow-cooked fillings kept hot and burrito bowls and more.

Near Tangmere, a hall or club may suit a taco bar if your own space is tight; we need the venue’s permission, a level spot and somewhere to unload. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Organising for someone else?

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

The menu, item by item

Toppings

Lime, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema, agreed with you.

Warm tortillas

Soft corn and flour tortillas, kept warm. The corn ones suit gluten-free guests.

Can I do a taco night myself?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Tangmere: venues, access and set-up

Tangmere is about 3 miles east of Chichester, in West Sussex. We bring taco bar hire to gardens, halls and venues around Tangmere. We serve in 371 places in West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages.

For guests coming by train, the nearest station is Chichester station, about 3.2 miles south-west. Close to Tangmere are historic houses such as Goodwood House (1.8 miles north-west) and West Dean House (4.6 miles north-west). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our truck or trailer parks further off. The coast is within about 6 miles of Tangmere, so for a seaside taco bar we plan around the wind. A sheltered spot for the station helps, and seafront sites typically need permission.

We serve at events all over PO20 and PO18. Local streets include Garland Square, Derwent Close and Jerrard Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Other places close to Tangmere for taco bar hire include Boxgrove (1 mile north), Strettington (1 mile north-west), Oving (1 mile south), Halnaker (1 mile north) and Maudlin (1 mile west).

What affects the price in Tangmere

We’ll give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

  • Whether you need disposables
  • How many guests we’re serving
  • Distance and access to the venue
  • Staff for serving and the bar

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • A picture of where we’d park
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Your menu ideas
  • Your date and when you want service to start

Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

Dietary needs and planning tips

We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Tell us when guests should eat
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Ensure one filling is vegan
  • Put allergies in writing for us

We arrive with time to unload and set the bar up before guests eat.

Loaded nachos make a good starter while the bar is set up.

Taco bar hire or something else?

About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it.

Mexican street food and drinks: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.

When do you arrive?

It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.

How the day works

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Evenings in Tangmere 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.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. Together we choose what goes on the bar.
  3. We confirm the table spot and where we’ll unload.
  4. Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
  5. When everyone has eaten, we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Find out what power and water are available
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Let us know the timings for the day
