How our Mexican party catering works in Blackfen
Many gardens and drives can take a truck or trailer, if there’s level, firm ground and a way in that is wide enough. Not sure? Send us a photo. We serve a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and quesadillas, which works well for exam-results parties and birthday parties.
Planning a London party in Blackfen? Street food from a truck or trailer keeps you out of the kitchen, and can work at a hired venue, a courtyard or a home with a drive. Tell us about parking bays, permits and any parking suspension. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.
