How we price Mexican street food
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Your choice of food and drinks
- Guest numbers
- Whether you need disposables
- The length of service
There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- The date and time of the event
- The address or venue name
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- What you’d like on the menu
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
