Mexican street food for Netley events
Mexican street food in Netley, from our truck or trailer
Few stalls draw a queue like a Mexican food truck. The smell of warm tortillas and slow-cooked fillings brings people over, and orders are served quickly from the hatch. It suits music and food festivals and race days and sports events, with tacos, loaded nachos and burrito bowls.
Village fêtes and summer fairs around Netley can be a good fit for a taco truck. Tell us about the pitch, ground and access. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.
Fairs, fêtes and events in Netley
Netley is about 3 miles north-east of Hythe, in Hampshire. Anywhere in SO31, we can bring the truck or trailer to you. We cater in all 683 towns and villages across Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Edward the Confessor might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. If your event is in Westwood Woodland Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission; we’ll supply what they need from us. Organisers near the New Forest National Park, within about 7 miles of Netley, may face extra conditions on traffic, ground protection and waste. We work to whatever the site sets. The coast is within about 2 miles of Netley, so for seaside events we plan a sheltered pitch, on firm ground rather than sand.
This part of Hampshire takes in SO31, so your event can be anywhere in it. Whether your event is on Station Road, The Crescent and Hunt Avenue or anywhere nearby, we’ll plan where to park and serve.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
Allergen information is available at the hatch.

Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
Where the truck can go in Netley
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Mexican street food or something else?
Hot-cabinet food lacks appeal. Our food is made to order. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

How the day works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Late-September events in Netley see sunset at about 7:10pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We trade, then pack down.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
Getting a price
Each quote is tailored to your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.

Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.

We clear our own area when service is finished. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
