Common questions in Upton
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we’ll check the access.
What’s the nearest station to Upton for guests?
Didcot Parkway station, about 2.4 miles north of the centre.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
How much is a taco truck for a party?
There is no fixed price list, because every party is different. Send your details and we will send a quote.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
How big an event can you cater?
It depends on the menu and how long service runs, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
What’s on the menu?
Mexican street food: tacos, taco bars, burritos, bowls, nachos and quesadillas, plus salsas, guacamole and toppings. A drinks bar is available too, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.
Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
Prices and what affects them
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How long we are needed on site
- Travel, parking and access
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How many guests we’re serving
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
- Diets and allergies you know about
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
Send us the date, your venue or OX11 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just fill in our quote form.
