Corporate Mexican catering for your work event in Shinfield
It is easy for work catering to leave people out. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options and allergen information for every dish, so the whole team eats the same kind of meal. At open days and conference lunches, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and nachos to share for your guests.
Work events near Shinfield might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. A truck or trailer suits all of them, with level ground and access. We prepare everything fresh for your work event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer.

- Roughly how many adults and children
- The venue or postcode
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Tell us about your work event in Shinfield, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
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.
What happens on the day
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. A lunchtime team event in Shinfield has daylight all year, even in December when sunset is about 3:55pm. For an evening event later in the year, ask facilities about lighting the car park or courtyard.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- You get a suggested menu, a quote and the paperwork your venue asks for.
- Access, the serving spot, power and water are agreed with you or your venue.
- We set up and serve your team on schedule.
- After service, we clear our area and leave it tidy.
How to prepare

FAQs for Shinfield
Which station is closest to Shinfield?
Guests can use Reading Green Park station, about 2.6 miles north-west of Shinfield.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Pearman's Copse?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Can you send documents to our venue?
Send us the venue’s requirements.
Do you come to Shinfield?
Yes, we do. Shinfield is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Corporate Mexican catering or something else?
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. A truck serving hot food is an event in itself. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- Menus chosen with you
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
