How our Mexican catering works in Roughway
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 suits weddings and evening receptions and leaving parties, serving burritos, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a hamlet or village like Roughway, your own garden or a neighbour’s field can make a good venue. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.

What happens on the day
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. Winter evenings in Roughway close in by about 3:55pm, so a well-lit spot for the queue makes a big difference. At midsummer, the light holds until around 9:20pm.
- It begins with the basics: your date, venue, guest numbers and dietary needs.
- You get a suggested menu, with fillings agreed with you, and a quote.
- Before the day, we agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day, we set up and serve from the truck or trailer, or from a taco-bar station.
- After service, we clear away and leave the spot tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Let us know the timings for the day

Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Tell us about coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Ask guests with severe allergies to talk to us before the event
- Ask guests about diets and allergies with your invitations
When service ends, we pack down and clear our area, leaving the space as we found it.
Burrito bowls are a good choice for anyone avoiding tortillas.
