Taco bar hire for Winton events
A build-your-own taco bar in Winton
Winton is about 3 miles north-east of Seaford, in East Sussex. Events in Winton are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We serve in all 289 towns and villages across East Sussex. We cater right across the region, from Winton to Brighton (13 miles away).
Close to Winton are historic houses such as Alfriston Clergy House (0.5 miles south) and Charleston Farmhouse (2.7 miles north-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, ask early whether a staffed taco bar is allowed and where we could unload. When the service is at a church such as Church of St. Andrew, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. With the South Downs National Park about a mile away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Winton. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload. With the sea within about 4 miles, a taco bar at a coastal venue is an option. Open toppings and a sea breeze don’t mix, so a sheltered or indoor spot is best.
Anywhere in BN26, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. For events just outside Winton, we cover Alfriston (1 mile south), Lullington (1 mile south), Milton Street (1 mile east), Dukes Green (1 mile south) and Alciston (1 mile north-west). Larger places within reach include Eastbourne (6 miles east), Bexhill-on-Sea (14 miles east), Seaford (3 miles south-west), Lewes (8 miles north-west), Hailsham (6 miles north-east) and Uckfield (11 miles north).
Other landmarks nearby include Old Forge Museum (Alfriston) (within half a mile south) and Arlington Castle (0.5 miles east). Not far away are Firle Beacon.

Taco bar hire for your event in Winton
Fillings are agreed with you, such as pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, with a vegan filling like black bean and sweet potato or spiced mushroom. On the menu are slow-cooked fillings kept hot, guacamole and fresh salsas, and it suits marquee parties and retirement parties.
For a rural spot like Winton, 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. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Is taco bar hire right for your event?
Buffet trays can go cold and tired. We keep the fillings hot and refill the dishes through service. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
