Planning an event in Rowstock?
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Put any allergies in writing for us
- Think about cover for guests in wet weather
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start or as a late snack.
Mexican catering in Rowstock, served fresh
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. It works well for birthday parties and staff parties and office lunches, with burrito bowls, a build-your-own taco bar and burritos.
In a small place like Rowstock, events are generally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Catering an event in Rowstock
Rowstock is about 3 miles west of Didcot, in Oxfordshire. Give us the address of your event in Rowstock, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up. Rowstock is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we can bring Mexican catering. Our nearest city page is Oxford, about 11 miles away.
If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Harwell Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. When the service is at a church such as Church of St Matthew, the food usually happens elsewhere, at a field, hall or garden with room for the truck. Venues in and around the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Rowstock, sometimes limit where vehicles can go. Ask yours about access for a truck or trailer before you book.
Anywhere in OX11, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Whether your event is on Tudor Walk, Wantage Road and Reading Road or a nearby road, we can bring Mexican catering there, given access. Nearby, we also cater events in East Hendred (1 mile west), West Hendred (2 miles west), Ardington (3 miles west), East Lockinge (3 miles west) and West Ilsley (4 miles south). Further out, we also cater in Oxford (11 miles north), Didcot (3 miles east), Abingdon-on-Thames (5 miles north), Witney (15 miles north-west), Wantage (5 miles west) and Grove (5 miles west).
Well-known places in the area include Atlas Computer Laboratory (1.7 miles south) and Abingdon Community Hospital (4.9 miles north). Open spaces near Rowstock include Mowbray Fields and Churn Hill.
- Nearby schools include UTC Oxfordshire (1.6 miles east)
- Local pubs include Old Chequers pub (0.8 miles east)
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- What the venue already provides
- Travel, parking and access
- How long we are needed on site
- What’s on the menu
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Roughly how many adults and children
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Diets and allergies you know about
We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, fill in our quote form.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
