Mexican catering for your event in Little Atherfield
A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. It works well for festivals, fairs and markets and family gatherings and christenings, serving loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a rural place like Little Atherfield, access is the main thing to plan: gate widths, soft ground and the distance from the road all matter. We confirm power and water arrangements with you before the day. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer.
