DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Is Mexican catering right for your event?
With a barbecue, someone normally ends up stuck at the grill. Book us and the cooking happens in our truck or trailer, so you can enjoy your event. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. Around midsummer it stays light in Donkey Street until about 9:15pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:00pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:50pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- First, send us your date, venue, numbers and any diets we should know about.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- We check access, power and water with you or the venue.
- We arrive, set up and cook to order, with salsas and guacamole made fresh.
- When service ends, we pack down and clear our area.
How to prepare
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
