Mexican catering in PO1: what to expect
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. It suits anniversaries and engagements and fundraisers and school events, serving tacos, quesadillas and loaded nachos.
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- We suggest a sample menu and send a quote for your event.
- Together we confirm where the truck or trailer will park, plus power and water.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.

Catering events across PO1
Across PO1, we cater in 3 towns and 0 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Southsea, Milton and Landport or a quiet village, the approach is the same: access, level ground and a clear plan. Around 11 places in PO1 are close to the coast, where we plan for the wind at seaside events.
Landport: Guests arriving by train will find that Landport has its own station, Portsmouth & Southsea station. For a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of All Saints, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone. Winter evenings in Landport close in by about 4:00pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:20pm.
Dietary needs and planning tips
With a little notice, most diets are easy. We suggest:
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.
Mexican catering or something else?
With a barbecue, someone typically ends up stuck at the grill. With us, the cooking happens in our truck or trailer, so you can enjoy your event.
