Mexican catering for Portfield events
What we need at the venue
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
- Clear vehicle access: gate widths, height limits and the ground checked before the day
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run behind, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. In Portfield, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- We pack down after service and leave the area tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Ask the venue about power and water
Getting a price

Is Mexican catering right for your event?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- A truck or trailer that comes to you
- Tacos, burritos and a drinks bar
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- A menu agreed with you
See our pricing or the cost guide.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Prices and what affects them
We quote for your event, which reflects:
- The length of service
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- How many staff you need
- Your choice of food and drinks
Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send a quick message through our quote form.
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included. To get it right:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Count children separately
Rain doesn’t stop us serving from the truck or trailer, but guests will need somewhere covered to eat.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you.

We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

We serve in 371 places across West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
Guests leaving a church like St George's after a christening could walk over to a nearby garden where the tacos are ready.
