DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Is Mexican bar hire right for your event?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. We quote for each event individually.
Why book with us
- Menus chosen with you
- Allergen information for every dish
- Quick, friendly service from the hatch
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
