Mexican party catering for your party in Chalkhouse Green

A country party near Chalkhouse Green is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
Planning for every diet
We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To get it right:
- Ensure most people can sit to eat
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
- Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
We’re set up before guests arrive.
Nachos for sharing as a starter.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Send a photo of the spot so we can check
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A flat, firm spot where the truck or trailer can stand
