Taco catering in PO3: local guide
From Milton, Hilsea and Baffins to 0 villages and hamlets, events across PO3 range from town-centre venues to gardens and fields, and a food truck or trailer can work in all of them, given access. Town events mean planning parking; village events mean planning access and ground. Around 7 places in PO3 are close to the coast, where we plan for the wind at seaside events.
Baffins: Thinking of an event in Alexandra Park? Public parks usually need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Langstone Junior Academy, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Around midsummer it stays light in Baffins until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Mention any other caterers or courses
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP
When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
Quesadillas are a good choice for children and cautious eaters, because they’re simple.
Occasions we cater for in PO3
Mixed diets are easy to plan for, since everyone picks their own fillings and toppings. Vegans and vegetarians eat as well as anyone else.
These are some of the occasions we serve around PO3:
- Family celebrations
- Anniversaries and engagements
- Office lunches and team days
- Retirement and leaving parties
Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
Is Mexican catering right for you?
Sit-down meals need a kitchen, tables and more staff. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, so we need a suitable spot, access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed when you book.
Questions to ask before booking
- When final numbers are due
- Travel and parking costs
- VAT, if it applies
- Payment terms and deposit
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Common questions in PO3
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can you set up at our venue?
We need level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water when you book.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, cook to order and serve tacos, burritos and more from the hatch. A build-your-own taco bar is another option.
When do you arrive?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.
