FAQs for Didcot
Do you come to events in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Which station is closest to Didcot?
Didcot has its own station: Didcot Parkway station.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, with corn tortillas. Corn is naturally gluten-free, though some sauces and toppings can contain gluten, so we plan gluten-free dishes carefully and give allergen information.
How many guests can you serve?
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.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
What do you need at the pitch?
Let us know what the pitch has and we’ll confirm our needs. Power and water are agreed with each booking.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
What if the weather’s bad?
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.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.

Shows and fairs in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, about 7 miles from Didcot at most, sometimes have rules on where traders can drive. Send us the site plan and we’ll plan around it.

What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A December market in Didcot loses the light at about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:25pm.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we are ready before the busiest hours.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Share the running order, including any speeches
