Common questions in Long Wittenham
What’s the nearest station to Long Wittenham for guests?
Guests can use Appleford station, about 1.3 miles west of Long Wittenham.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Mild dishes, quesadillas and nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
How spicy is the food?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Mexican bar hire or something else?
Some bars offer little for non-drinkers. Our aguas frescas are made for them. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

The process
We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. A late-September party in Long Wittenham loses the light at about 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- We check availability.
- We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- We set up and serve on cue.
- We tidy up at the end.
Getting ready for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Find out what power and water are available
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

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.
