Taco bar hire in Willingdon, from our truck or trailer
A taco bar suits mixed diets well, because every filling and topping sits in its own dish. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free choices, with corn tortillas for gluten-free guests, plus allergen information for every dish. For barn parties and evening wedding receptions, we will put together a menu of pickled onions and toppings, a build-your-own taco bar and slow-cooked fillings kept hot.
For a rural spot like Willingdon, a taco bar beside the truck in a field or garden is a simple set-up. Let us know about the gate, the ground and the route in, and we’ll confirm power and water with you. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

Taco bars for events around Willingdon

We cater in all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 17 miles away.
Close to Willingdon are historic houses such as Alfriston Clergy House (4.2 miles west) and Michelham Priory (4.5 miles north-west). 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. Guests leaving a church like The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin could head to a nearby hall or garden where the taco bar is ready. With the South Downs National Park about 5 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Willingdon. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.

Willingdon questions
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Which station should guests use for Willingdon?
Hampden Park station, about 1.2 miles east of the centre.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, including East Sussex. See all areas.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
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.
How many guests can a taco bar serve?
It depends on the event and the timings. As a guide, our bookings generally fall around 50 to 400 guests.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
What if a vehicle cannot reach the serving spot?
The taco bar can be served from a table or station away from the truck. We still need somewhere close to unload our vehicle, and the venue has to agree.
What’s on the menu
Vegan fillings
Vegan guests get a proper filling of their own.
Warm tortillas
Tortillas are the base of the bar. We keep a steady supply going through service.
What happens on the day
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Around midsummer it stays light in Willingdon until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is generally served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Start with your date, venue and guest numbers.
- Together we choose what goes on the bar.
- The venue confirms where the bar goes and where we park.
- On the day, guests help themselves while we keep the bar stocked.
- We clear the bar away after service.
Preparing for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Set out seating near the bar
- Fit the bar into your running order
- Pick the spot for the taco bar in advance
- Count children separately
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains.
Extra salsas, from mild to hot, let guests choose their own heat.
- Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
- Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
- Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
