Mexican bar hire or something else?
Bring-your-own is simple but uneven. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand, including non-drinkers. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why us?
- Menus chosen with you
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- Allergen-aware menus
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
Read how we price and our guide to catering costs.
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.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
