How we price Mexican catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the route in
- Timings and hours
- Serving staff
- The menu you choose
A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- What you’d like on the menu
- The date and time of the event
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- A picture of where we’d park
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
