Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
About the menu
Loaded nachos
Sharing nachos go down well.
Burritos
A big tortilla wrapped round rice, beans, a filling and toppings.

How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. Summer events in Portfield have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Before we arrive
- Find out what power and water are available
- Give us a contact for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Portfield events: pitches and permissions
Portfield is about 1 mile east of Chichester, in West Sussex. From the centre of Portfield to 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 371 places across West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Portfield to Brighton (about 28 miles away).
Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Portfield Primary Academy, a busy corner. Portfield is on or near the A259 and A285, so getting the truck or trailer to your pitch is simple. Within about 6 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
Here we cover the PO19, PO20 and PO18 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. We can cater an event on streets such as Kent Road, York Road and Spur Road or the roads around them. Being close to the A259 and A285, Portfield is easy for us to reach with the truck or trailer for your event. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Chichester (1 mile west), Westhampnett (1 mile north-east), Shopwyke (1 mile east), Maudlin (1 mile north-east) and North Mundham (2 miles south). Within a short drive, we also cover Bognor Regis (5 miles south-east), Selsey (7 miles south), Littlehampton (10 miles east), Emsworth (8 miles west), Rustington (11 miles east) and Storrington (15 miles north-east).

Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Some traders struggle with vegan and gluten-free visitors. We can serve vegan fillings and corn tortillas. 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.

Your questions about Mexican street food in Portfield
Could you come to a seaside event near Portfield?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Portfield?
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.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We serve vegan fillings such as black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
What food and drinks do you offer?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
