We serve in 19 places across Portsmouth, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater right across the region, from Cosham to Southampton (15 miles away).

DIY taco night versus a caterer
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Where the truck can go in Cosham
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
The process
Service is quick and friendly: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. By late September, it’s dark in Cosham at around 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- We check your dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Tell us when you want service to start
