Mexican party catering for Payden Street events
Mexican party catering for your party in Payden Street
You get to be a guest at your own party: no shopping, no cooking and no washing up of pans. The food is our job. Popular choices include loaded nachos, tacos and quesadillas, which works well for housewarming parties and anniversaries and engagement parties.
In a small place like Payden Street, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground, and we’ll plan the set-up. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
How it works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. For a winter party in Payden Street, it is dark by about 3:50pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
