Taco bar hire near Tye
Taco bar hire in Tye, from our truck or trailer
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests. We serve slow-cooked fillings kept hot, a build-your-own taco bar and warm corn and flour tortillas, and it is a good fit for wedding breakfasts and working lunches.
Somewhere as small as Tye, a garden, barn or hall can host a taco bar. If the truck can’t get close, we can set the station up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Comparing your options
Pizza is a safe choice, but a taco bar lets every guest design their own plate. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so share your ideas with us. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
What you get with us
- Book food, drinks or both
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- Service planned around your numbers
- Menus chosen with you
See our prices page or the cost guide.
For event organisers in Tye
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Ask guests with severe allergies to contact us before the day
- Set out seating near the bar
- Choose at least one vegan filling
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
After the last plate, we take the bar down.
Burrito bowls sit well on the bar for anyone avoiding tortillas.
What taco bar hire costs

- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Guest numbers
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
- Your menu ideas
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Taco bars for events around Tye
Tye is about 3 miles south of Havant, in Hampshire. Across the PO11 area, we will come to your venue or site, as long as there’s access. Tye is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we can bring taco bar hire.
Thinking of a taco bar in Eames Farm? Catering in a public park generally needs the landowner’s permission, so check first. Historic houses near Tye include Warblington Castle (2 miles north). 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. With the sea within about 3 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze do not mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.
This part of Hampshire takes in PO11, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. Streets in the area include Gutner Lane and Copse Lane, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Other places close to Tye for taco bar hire include North Hayling (1 mile north), Northney (1 mile north), Stoke (1 mile west), Thorney Island (1 mile north-east) and Warblington (2 miles north). Larger places within reach include Gosport (8 miles west), Havant (3 miles north), Fareham (11 miles west), Horndean (7 miles north), Waterlooville (6 miles north-west) and Petersfield (13 miles north).
Nearby you’ll also find Havant War Memorial Hospital (2.9 miles north-west) and Emsworth Museum (2.4 miles north). The countryside around Tye includes Hayling Billy.
- Local schools include The Hayling College (1.5 miles south-west)

Tye questions
Can you serve near the sea around Tye?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Is Tye close to London?
It’s about 60 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will talk licensing through with you.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
