Mexican party catering for your party in Shalfleet
Many gardens and drives can take a truck or trailer, as long as the ground is firm and level and the access is wide enough. Not sure? Send us a photo. It works well for big birthdays and big family gatherings, serving guacamole and salsas, loaded nachos and tacos.
In a small place like Shalfleet, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we’ll plan around it. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

What’s on the menu
Tacos
Warm tortillas with a filling and fresh toppings, served hot from the truck or trailer.
Loaded nachos
Nachos are a party favourite.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Your questions about Mexican party catering in Shalfleet
Could you come to a seaside event near Shalfleet?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you come out to small places like Shalfleet?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
Do you have vegan options?
Vegetarian and vegan fillings are cooked and served separately, and every dish is labelled. Ask anyone with a severe allergy to speak to us first.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
How early should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan the menu with them in mind.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will recommend how to serve.
Hosting a taco party in Shalfleet
Shalfleet is about 5 miles west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. From the centre of Shalfleet to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Shalfleet is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight we cover. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 15 miles away.
Nearby historic houses include Swainston Manor (2.1 miles south-east) and Mottistone Manor (3.3 miles south). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on outside caterers and vehicles, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. With the sea within about 6 miles of Shalfleet, a coastal party could work, though promenades generally need the council’s agreement for vehicles.

Why us?
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Set-up planned with you and your venue

We quote for your event, which reflects:
- Plates, napkins and cutlery
- Staff for serving and the bar
