How it compares
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A staffed bar means everyone is served. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

What’s on the menu
Mexican beer
Mexican beer is light and refreshing.
Soft drinks
A choice of soft drinks for drivers and children.
Should I do it myself?
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
