How our Mexican catering works in Chatham Waterfront
You can keep the menu short or make it a feast: tacos on their own, or tacos with burritos, nachos and quesadillas. Margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas can come from our drinks bar. On the menu are quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for weddings and evening receptions and staff parties and office lunches.
A place like Chatham Waterfront may have a hall or a club with a car park nearby; any can work, given permission and level ground to park on. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

The process
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December event in Chatham Waterfront will be in the dark from about 3:50pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and venue.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
