Planning an event in Cripp's Corner?
Catering for every guest
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Let us know about any other food at the event
- Check that your venue allows outside caterers and vehicles
- Plan a vegan filling as well as a vegetarian one
Food is served from the hatch, order by order, so everything goes out hot.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
How our Mexican catering works in Cripp's Corner
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. For company summer parties and anniversaries and engagements, we can serve fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos and loaded nachos.
In a small place like Cripp's Corner, events are generally in a garden, a field or a nearby hall. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives and we will plan for them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
