Kingston events: pitches and permissions
Kingston is about 1 mile south-east of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. We bring Mexican street food to gardens, halls and venues around Kingston and the surrounding area. Kingston is one of 19 towns and villages in Portsmouth where we can bring Mexican street food. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 16 miles away.
For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as Church of St Cuthbert, a taco truck adds hot food to the cakes and tombola. Thanks to the A288, we can bring the truck or trailer to Kingston without fuss. The coast is within about 2 miles of Kingston, so for seaside events we plan a sheltered pitch, on firm ground rather than sand.
This part of Portsmouth takes in PO1, PO3 and PO4. Streets in the area include Renny Road, Clive Road and Union Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Kingston is on the A288, so it’s easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer.

How it compares
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. Our fillings are ready to go, so orders are quick. 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.

How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A December market in Kingston loses the light at about 4:00pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Before we arrive
