About our Mexican party catering in Whitwell
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar, with alcohol-free options for drivers and children. Licensing is checked with you first. At summer garden parties and family get-togethers, we can serve guacamole and salsas, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos.
Country parties near Whitwell suit a food truck or trailer: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. We prepare everything fresh for your party and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Families celebrating a christening at a church such as Church of St. Mary and St. Radegund might carry on at a garden or hall where we can park up. 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.

Questions from Whitwell
Which station should guests use for Whitwell?
Shanklin station, about 4.5 miles north-east of the centre.
Could you come to a seaside event near Whitwell?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.
What food and drinks do you offer?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we run a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll check the licensing with you.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
For event organisers in Whitwell
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
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.
