How our Mexican catering works in Drayton
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Larger festivals and smaller parties are looked at case by case, so tell us your numbers. On the menu are a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and burritos, and it’s a good fit for milestone birthdays and leaving parties.
For a place the size of Drayton, your own garden or drive is often the best venue: no venue to hire and no cooking for you. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

Step by step
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. In Drayton, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Getting ready for the day

What we offer in Drayton
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- A clear quote
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Set-up planned with you and your venue
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
