Godshill is about 5 miles south of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Whether your event is in the middle of Godshill or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We cater in 125 places across the Isle of Wight, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Portsmouth, about 14 miles away.
Rail travel is an option for visitors, as Shanklin station is about 3.5 miles away. If you’re organising a summer fair or fundraiser for a school such as Godshill Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Within about 4 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
We cover events in every part of PO38 and the streets around it. Local streets include High Street, Jubilee Close and Yarborough Close; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

- We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
- We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare

- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
Godshill is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.
