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 enjoy the party, let us serve.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Prices and what affects them
Pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- What the venue already provides
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Parking and the route in
- Guest numbers
Extra dishes, drinks and longer service are priced on request, so you choose what goes in.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where we’d park
- The venue or postcode
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll check availability at the same time.

Sydenham questions
Could you serve in Mayow Park?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Check with them, and we’ll provide what they ask for from us.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Church of St Bartholomew?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Send us the reception address.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we will advise.
What drinks do you serve?
Margaritas and Mexican beer, with aguas frescas like horchata and agua de jamaica, plus alcohol-free choices.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
We confirm that with your quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.

What we need at the venue
