How our taco bar hire works in Cray's Pond
Taco bars suit wedding breakfasts, parties and office lunches alike. Guests build their plates quickly, so a crowd moves through steadily. We serve pickled onions and toppings, guacamole and slow-cooked fillings kept hot, and it suits evening wedding receptions and birthday parties.
Near Cray's Pond, a taco bar next to the truck in a field or garden works well. Tell us about gates, ground and the distance from the lane, and we confirm power and water arrangements before the day. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Taco bar hire in Cray's Pond: local tips
Cray's Pond is about 6 miles north-west of Caversham, in Oxfordshire. Give us the address of your event in Cray's Pond, and we’ll plan access and set-up. We serve in 443 places in Oxfordshire. You can also see our page for Reading, about 7 miles away.
When the service is at a church such as Church of St Leonard, the taco bar would be set up at the reception venue rather than the church. Historic houses near Cray's Pond include Basildon Park (2.2 miles south-west) and Mapledurham House (3.3 miles south-east). Historic venues often limit where vehicles can go, so ask whether a taco bar station could be set up inside while our food truck or trailer parks further off. Venues in and around the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Cray's Pond, sometimes have strict rules about catering and vehicles. Check with yours where a taco bar station and our truck or trailer could go.

Planning the serving area
If a space is not suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. What matters most:
- Space beside the truck or trailer if you are booking both
- A clear route from the vehicle to the serving spot
- Permission from the venue for us to set up
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.

How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. Winter evenings in Cray's Pond close in by about 3:55pm, so an indoor spot or a well-lit station works best. At midsummer, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Begin with the date and headcount.
- We plan fillings and toppings around your guests’ diets.
- We fix timings with you and the venue.
- Service starts when your running order says.
- Once service is over, we pack away.
Preparing for the day

- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Cray's Pond questions
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Leonard: can you cater afterwards?
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 will check the access.
What’s the nearest station to Cray's Pond for guests?
The closest is Goring & Streatley station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
How much is a taco bar?
There is no price list, because no two events are the same. Share your plans and you will get a quote. Our guide to Mexican catering costs may help.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The taco bar can sit next to the truck or trailer, or in a spot of its own. Either way, we need to unload nearby and have the venue’s permission.
How does a taco bar work?
A serving table is laid with warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and each guest builds their own. We stay to keep everything hot and stocked.
Which areas do you serve?
We cater across London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. See all areas.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates go first, so get in touch early.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain doesn’t generally stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
