Planning an event in East Cowes?

Step by step

On the day, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. For a summer wedding in East Cowes, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so evening tacos are typically served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting around the truck or trailer.

  1. You send us your wedding date, venue, numbers and how you see the day.
  2. We plan the food with you: wedding breakfast, evening food or both.
  3. We confirm access, the serving spot and the running order with the venue.
  4. On the day we set up and serve when your running order says.
  5. We pack down after service and leave our area tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Give us a contact for the day

About our wedding Mexican catering in East Cowes

The truck or trailer adds a splash of colour to the day, and guests enjoy seeing their food served fresh. It suits barn and farm weddings and engagement parties, serving tacos, a taco bar for the wedding breakfast and evening tacos.

In East Cowes, a local ceremony and a marquee reception is a personal choice. A food truck by the marquee suits that kind of day. Tell us about access to the field or garden. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so set-up goes smoothly.

Can I do a taco night myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Why choose wedding Mexican catering in East Cowes?

A hog roast is popular at weddings, but harder for vegetarian and vegan guests. Separate fillings and toppings cover every diet. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Fast service, even with a queue
  • Everything served fresh from the hatch
  • A plan agreed before the day
  • We cover East Cowes and the whole of the Isle of Wight

Where the truck can go in East Cowes

Access is the first thing to check for a truck or trailer. We need:

  • Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
  • Space for guests to queue
  • Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first

Out-of-the-way places like East Cowes take a little more planning, so let us know about tracks, gates and power in good time.

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for East Cowes

Could you come to a seaside event near East Cowes?

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 serve our guests after a service at St James's Church?

Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.

Can you cater for children?

Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

Which areas do you serve?

London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including East Cowes.

Can we add margaritas?

You can add our drinks bar, with bar staff serving your guests. Alcohol needs the right licence, so we will check that with you.

Do you have gluten-free options?

Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.

Is a taco bar smart enough for a wedding?

With good presentation, it feels like a celebration.

How many guests can you serve?

That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.

Catering for every guest

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Add your band and photographer to the numbers
  • Give us separate day and evening numbers
  • Let us know about severe allergies in writing
  • Put us in touch with your venue

Evening food is served at the agreed time, such as after the cake is cut.

A wider choice of salsas and toppings fills out the taco bar.
