Mexican party catering in Drayton, served fresh
Tacos are relaxed party food: easy to eat with one hand, so guests can keep chatting and there is no need for a seating plan. For garden get-togethers and street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers, we will put together a menu of loaded nachos, tacos and guacamole and salsas for your guests.
In a place like Drayton, a garden party is normally the easiest option. Tell us about the drive, gates and parking, and we’ll do the rest. Everything is prepared fresh for your party and served from our food truck or trailer.

Working with your venue

Throwing a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we will let you know if it’s a good fit.
How the day works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up our truck or trailer, and get on with serving. December parties in Drayton are dark from about 3:55pm, so think about how guests will see their way to the truck. In late June, it stays light until about 9:25pm.
