Questions from West Hill
What’s the nearest station to West Hill for guests?
Brighton station, in West Hill itself.
Is West Hill close to London?
About 46 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How does a taco bar work?
Guests take a plate and fill their tortillas from the dishes on the bar. We run the bar from set-up to pack-down.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a picture and we’ll talk it through.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.

The A2010 run on or near West Hill, which makes the journey with the taco bar an easy one. Guests leaving a church like Galeed Strict Baptist Chapel could head to a nearby hall or garden where the taco bar is ready. The South Downs National Park is within about 7 miles of West Hill, with barns and country venues that could host a taco bar. Where vehicles cannot reach the room, the station can be set up there with the venue’s agreement, but we still need to unload close by. With the sea within about a mile, 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.

How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. Around midsummer it stays light in West Hill until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is normally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We plan the fillings, salsas and toppings with you.
- We confirm the table spot and where we will unload.
- Our staff set out the bar and guests build their own tacos.
- When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
