How our Mexican catering works in Emsworth
Need taco catering in Emsworth? Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food. We serve burrito bowls, burritos and tacos, and it suits birthday parties and festivals, fairs and markets.
In a smaller place like Emsworth, your own garden, drive or a local hall is often the simplest option: no venue hire, and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Let us know about the route to the house. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Confirm allergies by email before the event
- Let us know about any other food at the event

- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so it is hot when it reaches them.
Ask about extra salsas and toppings for a bigger spread.
Mexican catering around Emsworth
Emsworth is about 2 miles east of Havant, in West Sussex. Events in Emsworth are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. Emsworth is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Emsworth to Chichester (about 7 miles away).
A gathering in Eames Farm would need the park owner’s say-so for any catering vehicle, and that is worth sorting out early. Parents planning a fundraiser at a school like St James Church of England Controlled Primary School might find a Mexican street-food truck draws families in. The coast is within about 6 miles of Emsworth, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots typically need permission from the council or landowner.
We serve at events all over PO10. Streets in the area include High Street, Beacon Square and Seagull Lane, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Emsworth sits on or near the A27 and A259, so getting the truck or trailer to your event is simple. For events just outside Emsworth, we cover Lumley (1 mile east), Westbourne (1 mile north-east), Denvilles (1 mile west), Southbourne (1 mile east) and Warblington (2 miles south-west). Further out, we also cater in Bognor Regis (12 miles east), Chichester (7 miles east), Selsey (10 miles south-east), Portfield (8 miles east), Yapton (14 miles east) and East Wittering (7 miles south-east).
Other landmarks nearby include Havant War Memorial Hospital (2.2 miles west) and Emsworth Museum (less than half a mile south). Green spaces nearby include Brook Meadow (Emsworth).
- Nearby schools include Bourne Community College (1 mile east)
- Local pubs include The Kings Arms (within half a mile south-west)
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.

How we price Mexican catering
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Distance and access to the venue
- How many guests we’re serving
- Timings and hours
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, plus any add-ons and the location. We quote for each event individually.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of where we’d park
- Where the event is
- Diets and allergies you know about
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. When you’re ready, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
How it works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. A December event in Emsworth will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- When you are done, we pack away.
How to prepare
- Tell us when you want service to start
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
