Mexican catering in Penn
How the day works
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. In Penn, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. For winter events, when it is 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 will park.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- After the last serving, we clear our area.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

Once everyone has eaten, we tidy up and pack away, leaving the space as we found it.
Burrito bowls suit guests who’d rather skip the tortilla.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
