Mexican party catering for your party in Blacklands
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, as long as the ground is firm and level and the access is wide enough. Send us a picture if you’re unsure. It suits anniversary celebrations and big family gatherings, with loaded nachos, a build-your-own taco bar and tacos.
In a place like Blacklands, a garden party is normally the easiest option. Tell us about the drive, gates and parking, and we’ll plan the rest. You’ll know what’s included before you book: menu, timings and any add-ons.
