Mexican party catering in Puckpool, served fresh
Taco bars are made for parties: guests fill their own tortillas from fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings, so fussy eaters and adventurous ones are both happy. At exam-results parties and family reunions, we can serve tacos, guacamole and salsas and burritos.
A country party near Puckpool is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Puckpool questions
Which station is closest to Puckpool?
Ryde St Johns Road station, about 1 mile west of the centre.
Could you serve our guests after a service at St John's Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, for instance a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
How much does party catering cost?
We quote for each party, based on numbers, the menu and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will talk licensing through with you.
Do you come to Puckpool?
We do. We serve at events in Puckpool and across the Isle of Wight. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

For somewhere as remote as Puckpool, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.
