Cray's Pond questions
Do you cater in villages like Cray's Pond?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Which station is closest to Cray's Pond?
Goring & Streatley station, about 2.1 miles west of the centre.
Is the food made fresh?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.
What space do you need?
Level, firm ground, access for the truck or trailer and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water when you book.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we’ll talk it through.
What is mobile Mexican catering?
We bring our food 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.
How many guests can you cater for?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Bigger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case.

Fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings laid out for guests to help themselves, with tortillas kept warm. Everyone builds their own.
Burritos and burrito bowls
Rice, beans, a filling and toppings rolled in a large tortilla, or served as a bowl instead.
Why choose Mexican catering in Cray's Pond?

For a christening or wedding at a church such as Church of St Leonard, a food truck at a garden or venue nearby is an easy way to feed everyone.
Questions to ask before booking
- The deadline for final numbers
- How many staff are serving, and for how long
- Allergen information for each dish
- Where to see their hygiene rating
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included. To make it work smoothly:
- Put guests with severe allergies in touch with us early
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one

- Let us know about any other food at the event
Allergen information is on hand for every dish.
Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can be added from our drinks bar, with licensing checked with you.
Mexican catering or something else?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a larger team. A food truck or trailer is its own kitchen, and needs a suitable spot, safe access and the venue’s agreement. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
