About our taco bar hire in Tidebrook
Truck and trailer bookings typically suit around 50 to 400 guests, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Share your headcount and we’ll size the taco bar to match. It works well for garden parties and engagement parties, with fresh salsas, guacamole and pickled onions and toppings.
Near Tidebrook, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. We serve from the hatch of our food truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.

Questions from Tidebrook
Which station should guests use for Tidebrook?
Guests can use Wadhurst station, about 2.4 miles north of Tidebrook.
Could you set up a taco bar in a hall near Tidebrook?
Yes, if the venue allows outside caterers. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Can the taco bar cater for special diets?
There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
What do you need at the venue?
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 picture and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. We fit it around your speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Who books taco bar hire in Tidebrook?

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Planning for every diet
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Let us know about anyone who is coeliac
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains.
Ask us about plates, napkins and cutlery and we will set out the options in your quote.
Is taco bar hire right for your event?
