About our Mexican party catering in Hale Common
A build-your-own taco bar is ideal for a party: everyone builds their own tacos from the fillings and toppings, so fussy eaters and adventurous ones are both happy. For graduation and exam-results parties and birthday parties, we can serve guacamole and salsas, loaded nachos and a build-your-own taco bar and more.
A country party near Hale Common is a good fit for street food: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
