Mexican street food in Mongewell, served fresh
A taco stall covers many diets at once: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That helps organisers balance the line-up. For sports clubs and race days and country shows, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, burritos and tacos for your guests.
At a field event near Mongewell, power and water may be limited; let us know and we will confirm the arrangements. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Street food for events around Mongewell
Mongewell is about 6 miles east of Didcot, in Oxfordshire. We serve at events in homes, gardens and venues in Mongewell. Mongewell is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Mongewell to Oxford (12 miles away).
A school such as Crowmarsh Gifford Church of England School running a summer fair could book a taco truck. Organisers looking at Kinecroft as a site should start with the landowner, who sets the rules for traders and vehicles. Events in and around the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Mongewell, often have rules about vehicles, ground and waste; we will follow the site’s requirements.
Anywhere in OX10, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. From Hasthorpe Road, Shuttleworth Close and Elizabeth Road or a nearby road, we’ll plan where to park and serve. Neighbouring places where we cater events include Newnham Murren (1 mile north), Crowmarsh Gifford (1 mile north-east), Winterbrook (1 mile south-west), North Stoke (1 mile south) and Cholsey (2 miles south-west). Larger places within reach include Oxford (12 miles north-west), Didcot (6 miles west), Abingdon-on-Thames (9 miles north-west), Thame (12 miles north-east), Wantage (13 miles west) and Henley-on-Thames (10 miles south-east).
A little further out are Wallingford Castle (0.9 miles north). Not far away are Wittenham Clumps and Cholsey Marsh.

What we need at the venue
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Your trader pack and site rules
- Pitch space for the vehicle and a queue
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

How it compares
A single pizza or burger stall can’t cover every visitor. Our menu gives visitors choice. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
- Share power and water details early
- Ensure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options
- Send traders one clear trader pack
We set up at the agreed time.
Burrito bowls for gluten-free visitors.
