Taco bar hire in Westhampnett
Taco bar hire for your event in Westhampnett
Our taco bar travels to events across Westhampnett and the surrounding area: from barns and marquees to gardens, halls and offices. At engagement parties and company parties, we will put together a menu of warm corn and flour tortillas, pickled onions and toppings and guacamole and more.
In a small place like Westhampnett, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. If lanes or soft ground stop the truck getting close, the station can be set up nearer your guests, though we still need to unload within a short walk. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Westhampnett: venues, access and set-up
Westhampnett is about 1 mile north-east of Chichester, in West Sussex. For an event in Westhampnett, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. We cater in 371 places in West Sussex, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Guests arriving without a car will want to know that Chichester station is about 1.7 miles away. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like The Parish Church of St Peter, a hall close by could host a staffed taco bar, with the venue’s permission.

Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:

- A flat spot for the taco-bar station
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.

How it works
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and get on with serving. A December taco bar in Westhampnett will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. In late June, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Share a few details about the event.
- You get a suggested taco-bar menu and a quote.
- We check power, water and access with your venue.
- We set up the station and keep everything hot.
- At the end, we take everything away.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Name one person we can ask on the day

Planning help
Who books taco bar hire in Westhampnett?
Guests on special diets don’t need a separate meal, since corn tortillas and vegan fillings sit with everything else.
Whatever the occasion, our truck or trailer can be the centre of it. We’re happy to cater:
- Wedding breakfasts
- Office lunches
- Wedding evening food
- Summer garden parties
Close to Westhampnett are historic houses such as Goodwood House (1.6 miles north) and West Dean House (4.1 miles north). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload.
What your quote should include
- What the price includes, item by item
- Whether plates, napkins and cutlery are included
- Whether VAT is included
- How many staff are serving, and for how long
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask the venue where we can park to unload
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
If speeches or timings run over, we keep the fillings hot and start when you are ready.
Ask us whether a second station would help with big numbers.
Questions from Westhampnett
Which station should guests use for Westhampnett?
Chichester station, about 1.7 miles south-west of the centre.
Can you serve near the sea around Westhampnett?
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.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Can you do gluten-free food?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
What happens if it rains?
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 do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll confirm what’s included with your quote.
What affects the price in Westhampnett
The price comes down to a few factors:
- What the venue already provides
- The length of service
- Guest numbers
- What’s on the menu
There is no one-size-fits-all price for taco bar hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Expected numbers
- The address or venue name
We quote for each event separately, based on what you need. To ask for one, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
Taco bar hire or something else?
The difference between a taco bar and truck service is who builds the taco. At the hatch, we make each order; at the bar, guests build their own. Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you can choose what you need.
Why book with us
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
- A menu agreed with you
- Service planned around your numbers
