Mexican catering for your event in Beckley Furnace
We plan each menu with the client, with fillings such as slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. It works well for school fairs and fundraisers and big birthday celebrations, serving a build-your-own taco bar, burritos and burrito bowls.
Somewhere as small as Beckley Furnace, a garden or field is often the venue. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters, especially after rain. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.

Beckley Furnace is within about 6 miles of the sea, so for a seaside event we plan around the wind. The truck or trailer needs firm ground rather than sand or shingle, and seafront spots normally need permission from the council or landowner.
