Catering for every guest
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Measure your gate or driveway
- Arrange a gazebo in case of rain
- Let the neighbours know
- Tell us how many children are coming
After service, we pack away, leaving you to carry on celebrating.

Mexican party catering in Upper Common, served fresh
Taco bars are made for parties: everyone builds their own tacos from the fillings and toppings, so everybody gets what they like. At housewarming parties and street and neighbourhood parties, we can serve quesadillas, loaded nachos and burritos.
Country parties near Upper Common suit a food truck or trailer: served fresh from the hatch in a garden or field. Plan a gazebo for guests in case of rain. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
