Corporate Mexican catering for Blackwater events
Can I do a taco night myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
How our corporate Mexican catering works in Blackwater
Our drinks bar can be added to a staff party, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices. We’ll go through the licensing with you. We serve quesadillas, tacos and a build-your-own taco bar, which works well for charity days at work and training days.
Teams near Blackwater often go for an outdoor lunch or summer party. Tell us about the site and access. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Blackwater questions
How far is Blackwater from London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Sandhurst Memorial Park?
Only if the landowner, often the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
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. Tell us your numbers and we will advise.
Who clears up?
We pack down and leave our area tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll talk it through.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
Can you cater a winter staff party?
Hot tacos on a cold evening go down well. Book early for December and tell us about the venue.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
