About our Mexican party catering in Charlton
A Mexican party takes the food off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We park our truck or trailer and serve hot food while your guests chat. At naming days and christenings and housewarmings, we can serve a build-your-own taco bar, tacos and guacamole and salsas for your guests.
Country parties near Charlton suit a food truck or trailer: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. Everything is prepared fresh for your party and served from our food truck or trailer.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. At midsummer, it’s light in Charlton until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You choose fillings, sides and extras.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We serve hot food at the time you choose.
- We pack away and the party carries on.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
