Binstead events: pitches and permissions
Binstead is about 1 mile west of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. Give us the address of your event in Binstead, and we will plan the journey and set-up before the day. We cover all 125 towns and villages in the Isle of Wight, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Binstead to Portsmouth (7 miles away).
For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as Holy Cross Church, a taco truck adds hot food to the cakes and tombola. Visitors arriving by train will find that the nearest station is Ryde Esplanade station, about 1.3 miles east. With the sea within about 2 miles, we plan for wind at coastal events, on firm ground rather than sand.
This part of the Isle of Wight takes in PO33. From Pitts Lane, Quarr Road and Church Road or anywhere nearby, we’ll plan where to park and serve.

Larger places within reach include Newport (5 miles west), Cowes (6 miles west), Sandown (5 miles south), Shanklin (7 miles south), Ventnor (9 miles south) and East Cowes (5 miles north-west).

Common questions in Binstead
What’s the nearest station to Binstead for guests?
Guests can use Ryde Esplanade station, about 1.3 miles east of Binstead.
Do you come to school fairs around Binstead?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, including the Isle of Wight. Find your area.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we’ll set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
Can we book you as a trader?
Tell us about the event, dates and pitch, and we will check availability.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
What affects the price in Binstead
We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:
- Whether you need disposables
- How long we’re needed on site
- The menu you choose
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- What you’d like on the menu
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just use our quote form.
What happens on the day
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Christmas markets in Binstead trade in the dark from about 4:00pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
Ask for a quote
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

A single pizza or burger stall can’t cover every visitor. Tacos, burritos, bowls and nachos give choice from one pitch. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
