Choosing a Mexican caterer

Working with your venue

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

The process

We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. For an evening event in Rodmell, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.

  1. It starts with your event details and pitch information.
  2. We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
  3. We set up the truck or trailer on the pitch at the agreed time.
  4. We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
  5. When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.

How to prepare

  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in
  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
