Hosting a taco party in North End
North End is about 1 mile north of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. For Mexican party catering in North End, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards. North End is one of 19 places in Portsmouth where we can bring Mexican party catering. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 15 miles away.
Thinking of a party in Alexandra Park? A food truck in a public park usually needs permission from the landowner, so check first. After a christening at a church like St. Mark’s, a taco truck at home or at a hall is an easy way to feed family and friends. Near the coast, within about 3 miles, a beach-side party is tempting, but seafront spots need permission and firm ground for the truck or trailer.
Mexican party catering in PO2 and PO1 is planned around your venue and access and timings. Your party could be at a home on Knox Road, Croft Road and Kirby Road. North End is on the A2047, which makes it straightforward to bring the truck or trailer.

Common questions in North End
What’s the nearest station to North End for guests?
Guests can use Hilsea station, about 1.2 miles north-east of North End.
Is it possible to have you in Alexandra Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. There are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. Allergen information is available for every dish.
Can you do a kids’ option?
It is popular with children, particularly quesadillas. Tell us how many children and their ages.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance, along with pack-down.
Can you do dairy-free food?
We can. Dairy-free options are part of our menus.
Can you cater at a hired venue?
Yes, if there is space outside for the truck or trailer and the venue agrees. Check the venue allows a catering vehicle.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
How it compares
Ordering takeaway is easy but forgettable. A truck or trailer serving hot food feels like an event. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
