Mexican party catering in Shatterling, from our food truck or trailer
A truck or trailer can often park on a drive or in a garden, if there is level, firm ground and a way in that’s wide enough. Not sure? Send us a picture. On the menu are burritos, quesadillas and loaded nachos, and it’s a good fit for birthday parties and retirement celebrations.
In a small place like Shatterling, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access and soft ground, and we will plan around it. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
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.
