Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Flag anyone with coeliac disease
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Ask the venue whether food trucks are allowed
- Plan somewhere covered for guests to eat if it rains
On the day, we arrive in good time to park up and get ready. Someone from the venue just needs to point us to the agreed spot.
Quesadillas go down well with children, because they’re simple.
Mexican catering in Wash Common, served fresh
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. Burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas can sit alongside them. We serve burritos, tacos and burrito bowls, which works well for engagement and anniversary parties and festivals, fairs and markets.
For a place the size of Wash Common, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Let us know about the route to the house. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

Catering an event in Wash Common
Wash Common is about 2 miles south-west of Newbury, in West Berkshire. Tell us where your event in Wash Common will be, and we’ll plan access and set-up before the day. We cover 155 places in West Berkshire. You can also see our page for Reading, about 17 miles away.
Before you pencil in Sandleford Priory, find out who manages it: driving a truck onto parkland and selling food there both need their agreement. If you’re celebrating after a service at a church like St Luke Church, a truck or trailer parked at a hall or garden close by can serve the meal.
Here we cover the RG14 and RG20 postcode area, and we can cater your event anywhere in it with access for the truck or trailer. We can cater an event on streets such as Battle Road, Stuart Road and Warren Road or the roads around them. For events just outside Wash Common, we cover Wash Water (1 mile south-west), Enborne Row (1 mile south-west), Skinners Green (1 mile north-west), Newtown Common (1 mile south-east) and Sandleford (1 mile east).

How we price Mexican catering
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- What’s on the menu
- How many staff you need
- Travel, parking and access
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.

To speed things up, tell us:
- Your date and when you want service to start

- Your menu ideas
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

It’s about 55 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
It depends on the event. Most bookings fall around 50 to 400 guests, but tell us your numbers and we will take it from there.

Where do you cater?
We cater across London and the South East, West Berkshire included. Find your area.
Can we have a build-your-own taco bar?
We can. A build-your-own taco bar can be served from the truck or a serving station, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from.

Yes. There are vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and corn tortillas suit gluten-free guests. We give allergen information for every dish.
Can you serve in the rain?
The truck or trailer can serve in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
