About our taco bar hire in Woodmancote
The toppings are where guests get creative: lime wedges, coriander, pickled onions, cheese and crema. On the menu are slow-cooked fillings kept hot, pickled onions and toppings and burrito bowls, which works well for marquee parties and summer garden parties.
In a small place like Woodmancote, a taco bar might go in a garden, a barn or a nearby hall. 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. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of outdoor spaces and venues work for us, but there are a few things to check:
- Easy access from where we unload to the table
- The venue’s agreement for the taco bar and our vehicle
- A parking or loading spot near the serving area
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
Menu ideas
- Vegan fillings
- Corn and flour tortillas
- Pickled onions and toppings
- Salsas and guacamole
- Two to four fillings
- Tortilla chips

Common questions in Woodmancote
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can the taco bar go in a local hall rather than outside?
Yes, with the venue’s permission. We need a short route from where we park to the room, and space for the station and a queue.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Woodmancote.
What do you need at the venue?
Room for the table and a queue, plus a nearby place to unload. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
How much does taco bar hire cost in Woodmancote?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Send us the details for a quote.
Can we have a taco bar at our wedding?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. Service is timed around speeches and photos. There is more in our taco bar guide.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
How we price taco bar hire
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Guest numbers
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Distance and access to the venue
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Details that help
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The address or venue name
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- Roughly how many adults and children
The quickest way to a quote is to send a quick message through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.
Working with your venue
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Woodmancote is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Woodmancote to Brighton (about 8 miles away).
Thinking of a taco bar in Tottington Wood? Catering in a public park generally needs the landowner’s permission, so check first. For guests coming by train, Hassocks station is about 4.3 miles away. With the South Downs National Park about 6 miles away at most, a countryside taco bar is an option from Woodmancote. Rural venues may limit vehicles, so ask where we can park and unload.

Planning for every diet
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Ask guests about diets and allergies on the RSVP
- Confirm any allergies to us by email
- Flag any guest with coeliac disease
A covered spot keeps the bar and guests dry if it rains, so plan somewhere sheltered if you can.
Book our drinks bar with the taco bar for margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. In Woodmancote, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is normally served in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan good lighting over the station.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- We clear our station when service ends.
Getting ready for the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
