Common questions in Reading Street
Do you cater in villages like Reading Street?
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.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, but some fillings, sauces and toppings may not be, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will include them in the plan.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Where the truck can go in Reading Street
Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A clear area in front of the hatch for a queue
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours
