How our Mexican catering works in Lordington
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. People wander up, order at the hatch and head off with hot food, which suits informal events. On the menu are burritos, burrito bowls and quesadillas, and it’s a good fit for office lunches and team days and garden parties.
In a rural place like Lordington, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

How it works
Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. A December event in Lordington will be in the dark from about 4:00pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Begin with the date, the place and the numbers.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Give us a contact for the day

Planning help
Before you choose a spot
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- A spot for a taco-bar serving table
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. Our truck or trailer brings its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why us?
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- A menu built around your guests
- Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
- A plan agreed before the day

Catering an event in Lordington
Lordington is about 4 miles east of Havant, in West Sussex. Across the PO18 area, we can bring the truck or trailer to you. Lordington is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we can bring Mexican catering. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 22 miles away.
A school such as Bourne Community College running a summer fair or fundraiser could book a taco truck. Historic houses near Lordington include Warblington Castle (4.2 miles south-west) and Uppark (4.8 miles north). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before you book one. With the South Downs National Park about 7 miles away at most, a rural setting is never far from Lordington. Country lanes there can be narrow and verges soft, so tell us about the route in.
We cater events across PO18 and the streets around it. Close by, we cover events in Racton (1 mile south), Walderton (1 mile north-east), Funtington (2 miles south-east), Hambrook (2 miles south) and West Ashling (2 miles south-east). We also cater in nearby towns such as Bognor Regis (11 miles south-east), Chichester (6 miles south-east), Selsey (11 miles south-east), Emsworth (3 miles south-west), Portfield (6 miles south-east) and Yapton (13 miles east).
Nearby you will also find Havant War Memorial Hospital (4.7 miles south-west) and Emsworth Museum (3.2 miles south-west). Open spaces near Lordington include Kingley Vale National Nature Reserve and Walderton Down.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
We can still serve from the hatch if it rains, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Extra salsas and toppings can widen the choice.
Organising for someone else?
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Lordington? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Lordington questions
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Stansted Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
How many guests can you cater for?
It depends on the event. As a guide, it is around 50 to 400 guests; tell us your numbers and we’ll take it from there.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we will talk it through.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. Timings are agreed in advance to suit your day.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, using corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.
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.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
