Common questions in Blackthorn

What’s the nearest station to Blackthorn for guests?

Bicester Village station, about 2.6 miles north-west of the centre.

Do you come out to small places like Blackthorn?

Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.

What about power on site?

It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.

Do you provide allergen information for each dish?

Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.

What’s on the menu?

We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

What happens if it rains?

Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.

Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?

Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.

Can you do dairy-free food?

Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we’ll tell you which dishes contain milk.

Questions to ask before booking

Planning a party in Blackthorn

Blackthorn is about 3 miles south-east of Bicester, in Oxfordshire. From the centre of Blackthorn to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. Blackthorn is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire we cover. Our nearest city page is Oxford, about 10 miles away.

Around Blackthorn, historic houses include Boarstall Tower (3.3 miles south). A milestone birthday in a historic setting is possible, but find out early whether a food truck can get on site. Families celebrating a christening at a church such as Church of St Mary the Virgin might carry on at a garden or hall where we can park up.

Anywhere in OX25, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. Streets in the area include Station Road, Lower Road and Thame Road, and a party on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Nearby, we also cater parties in Piddington (2 miles south-east), Ludgershall (3 miles south-east), Grendon Underwood (4 miles east), Edgcott (4 miles north-east) and Brill (4 miles south-east). Larger places within reach include Oxford (10 miles south-west), Bicester (3 miles north-west), Thame (10 miles south-east), Kidlington (9 miles south-west), Chinnor (14 miles south-east) and Headington Quarry (9 miles south-west).

A little further out are Bicester Community Hospital (3.1 miles north-west) and Bicester Village (2.8 miles north-west). The countryside around Blackthorn includes Upper Ray Meadows and Graven Hill.

Organising for someone else?

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Mexican party catering or something else?

A home-made buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Tacos and burritos are served hot, order by order. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

  2. We suggest a menu and send a quote.
  3. We confirm access, then arrive early on the day.
  4. Food is served from the hatch or the taco bar.
  5. We pack down after service.

Getting ready for the day

What affects the price in Blackthorn

Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Parking and the route in
  • Serving staff
  • How many guests we are serving
  • What’s on the menu

Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can feel generous.

Details that help

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The address or venue name
  • Your date and when you want service to start
  • Gate widths, slopes and the ground
  • A picture of where we’d park

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just send us your details through our quote form.

Should I do it myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

  • Served from our truck or trailer at your venue, garden or event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
  • Tacos and taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas
  • Mexican drinks bar: margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas
