About our Mexican street food in Westridge
We agree a stall menu with you, perhaps chicken tinga, carnitas or birria, and a vegan filling like black beans. On the menu are quesadillas, loaded nachos and vegan tacos, and it suits sports club events and village fairs.
Rural events near Westridge can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Planning help
Westridge: your questions answered
Can you trade at a school fair in Westridge?
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.
Do you come out to small places like Westridge?
Yes, small places are no problem, given access. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.

With fillings ready to go, service is quick.
Do you need water?
We will confirm our needs once we know the pitch details, including power and water.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.

Event catering near Westridge
Westridge is about 1 mile south-east of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. We cater events at gardens, halls and venues around Westridge. We cover 125 places in the Isle of Wight, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Westridge to Portsmouth (about 7 miles away).
Hot food from a truck or trailer could give a school fair, for a school such as Oakfield Church of England Aided Primary School, a busy corner. Westridge is on or near the A3055, so getting the truck or trailer to your pitch is simple. The coast is within about 2 miles of Westridge, so for seaside events we plan a sheltered pitch, on firm ground rather than sand.
Anywhere in PO33, we can bring Mexican street food to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Whether your event is on Bullen Road, Hayward Avenue and Salisbury Road or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican street food there, given access. Being close to the A3055, Westridge is easy for us to reach. Close by, we cover events in Elmfield (1 mile north), Oakfield (1 mile north-west), Appley (1 mile north), Pondwell (1 mile east) and Puckpool (1 mile north-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Newport (7 miles west), Cowes (8 miles north-west), Sandown (4 miles south), Shanklin (6 miles south), Ventnor (9 miles south) and East Cowes (7 miles north-west). For an event at a remote venue, let us know early and we’ll plan the trip and the route in for the truck or trailer.
Nearby you will also find Gosport War Memorial Hospital (5.5 miles north) and Cothey Bottom Heritage Centre (less than half a mile south-east). Green spaces nearby include Alan Hersey Nature Reserve and Brading Down.

For event organisers in Westridge
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
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.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Mexican street food or something else?
For crew catering, sandwiches are easy but uninspiring. A hot meal keeps crew happy. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
