About our Mexican party catering in Hawkenbury
Mexican street food suits birthdays, garden parties and all kinds of celebrations. The truck or trailer is a focal point, and every plate goes out hot. For retirement celebrations and street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers, we’ll put together a menu of loaded nachos, burritos and tacos and more.
Country parties near Hawkenbury suit a food truck or trailer: parked up on firm ground and serving from the hatch. Have a covered area ready in case of rain. We arrive ready to serve, and clear our own area when service is finished.
What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. In Hawkenbury, it is light until about 9:15pm in June but dark by about 3:50pm in December, so the time of year shapes an evening party.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You choose fillings, sides and extras.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- Service starts at the agreed time.
- We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Can I do a taco night myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
