About our taco bar hire in Tortington
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. We plan vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. It works well for marquee parties and evening wedding receptions, with guacamole, fresh salsas and a build-your-own taco bar.
For a rural spot like Tortington, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Questions from Tortington
Do you come out to small places like Tortington?
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.
Which station should guests use for Tortington?
Ford station, in Tortington itself.
How do you handle dietary needs at the taco bar?
There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Every dish has allergen information.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you cover Tortington?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Tortington is within our area. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.
Are plates and napkins included?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
How the day works
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. In Tortington, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is generally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan good lighting over the station.
