Mexican catering in Newport, from our truck or trailer
Our food truck or trailer travels to events across Newport and nearby: private gardens, venue grounds, courtyards and fields, wherever we can get in safely. On the menu are quesadillas, burrito bowls and loaded nachos, and it’s a good fit for school fairs and fundraisers and big birthday celebrations.
Most events in a town like Newport are in gardens, halls, clubs or hired venues. Each can work, provided we can drive in and park on level ground. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Mexican catering or something else?
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. 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. Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.

Planning the serving area
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Space for guests to queue
Newport is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.

On the menu in Newport
- Burritos
- Loaded nachos
- Quesadillas
- Burrito bowls
- Tacos
- Build-your-own taco bar
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Planning a food truck in Newport
Newport is about 10 miles south-west of Gosport, in the Isle of Wight. Tell us where your event in Newport will be, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. Newport is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight we cover. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 16 miles away.
Historic houses near Newport include Carisbrooke Castle (1 mile south-west) and Gatcombe House (2.5 miles south). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before booking one. For a christening or wedding at a church such as The Man in the Moon, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. The coast is within about 5 miles of Newport, 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 generally need permission from the council or landowner.
This part of the Isle of Wight takes in PO30. Local streets include High Street, Red Fox Square and Drill Hall Road; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Newport is on the A3020 and A3054, so it is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer. For events just outside Newport, we cover Shide (1 mile south-east), Blackwater (2 miles south), Downend (2 miles east), Merstone (3 miles south-east) and Rookley (3 miles south). Further out, we also cater in Ryde (6 miles east), Cowes (4 miles north), Sandown (7 miles south-east), Shanklin (7 miles south-east), Ventnor (8 miles south-east) and East Cowes (4 miles north). As one of the bigger places in the Isle of Wight, Newport has plenty of venues and spaces for events. If your event is somewhere remote, tell us early so we can plan the journey, access and power.
Nearby you’ll also find Carisbrooke Castle (1 mile south-west) and St Mary's Hospital (0.8 miles north). Open spaces near Newport include Briddlesford Nature Reserve and Mill Hill.
- Nearby schools include Island Innovation VI Form Campus (within half a mile south-east) and Christ The King College (0.6 miles south-west)
- Nearby, you will find Castle Inn (under half a mile north-east)
