Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:

- Trader information and site rules
- A level pitch on firm ground
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Event catering near Theale
Theale is about 4 miles west of Reading, in West Berkshire. For Mexican street food in Theale, we plan around your venue and timings: a quote, a plan and friendly service on the day. We serve in all 155 towns and villages in West Berkshire, from the larger towns to small villages, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.

Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because guests can choose what suits them. A few tips:
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Book crew catering in advance
On the day, we work with your site team on any changes.
Alcohol-free aguas frescas.

What Mexican street food costs
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- What the venue already provides
- The length of service
- Parking and the route in
- How many staff you need
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
These details help us quote quickly:
- The venue or postcode
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Your date and when you want service to start
- What power and water the site has
To get a price, just drop us a line using the enquiry form. Tell us about your event in Theale, and we’ll put together a menu and price.
How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. At midsummer, events in Theale stay light until about 9:25pm, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Getting ready for the day

How far is Theale from central London?
About 43 miles from central London.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, plus the venue’s permission. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can you come to a private house?

What documents can you send?
Tell us what the event needs and we will send the paperwork your event asks for.
What happens if it rains?
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.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
