DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
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.
How our Mexican bar hire works in Banbury
Mexican beer is served cold, with a wedge of lime if guests like. For themed celebrations and company summer parties, we’ll put together a menu of agua de jamaica, alcohol-free drinks and soft drinks for your guests.
In a town like Banbury, a drinks bar suits garden parties, club and hall events, and receptions. We need a level spot for the truck or trailer and the venue’s permission. We prepare everything fresh for your event and serve it straight from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
