Padworth questions
Is it possible to have you in Padworth Common Local Nature Reserve?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll help with the information they need from us.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St John the Baptist: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you come to Padworth?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Padworth is within our area and the rest of West Berkshire. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we check every dish and give allergen information.
Do you need electricity?
Let us know what’s available on site, such as a supply from the venue near where we will park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you cook on site?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Our service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Bigger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case.
Can you cater for special diets?
Diets are planned in advance, with options kept separate, but we cannot promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us first.
How it compares
Next to a hog roast or a barbecue, tacos make vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to cater for, because fillings and toppings are kept separate. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican catering. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Popular choices
Burritos and burrito bowls
A burrito is a meal in one. The bowl version suits anyone avoiding tortillas.
Quesadillas
Tortillas filled with melted cheese and a filling, toasted until crisp.
Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
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 be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Planning a food truck in Padworth
Padworth is about 3 miles north-east of Tadley, in West Berkshire. For Mexican catering in Padworth, we can serve in gardens, fields, venues, car parks and courtyards with access. We cover all 155 towns and villages across West Berkshire, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in. We cater right across the region, from Padworth to Reading (about 7 miles away).
When the service is at a church such as Church of St John the Baptist, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. For a fête or sports day at a school such as Sulhamstead and Ufton Nervet School, hot food from a truck or trailer saves the volunteers from cooking.
Here we cover the RG7 postcode area, so your event can be anywhere in it. Local streets include School Road, Silver Lane and Sopers Lane; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Padworth Common (1 mile south), Old Warren (1 mile south), Aldermaston Soke (2 miles south), Aldermaston (2 miles west) and Pamber Heath (2 miles south). Larger places within reach include Newbury (9 miles west), Thatcham (6 miles west), Speenhamland (9 miles west), Spencers Wood (6 miles east), Calcot (4 miles north-east) and Shaw (9 miles west).
A little further out are Thames Valley Police Museum (2.3 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Hosehill Lake and Moor Copse Nature Reserve.
- Schools near Padworth include The Willink School (1.8 miles east)
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests build their own while we keep it topped up.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t generally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. In Padworth, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.

- We come back with menu ideas and a quote.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and arrangements.
- We serve hot food from our food truck or trailer at the agreed time.
- We pack away when service is over.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
