About our Mexican street food in Sharpthorne
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, so service stays quick through busy periods. It works well for crew and volunteer catering and fundraisers and fêtes, serving quesadillas, loaded nachos and burritos.
A fête near Sharpthorne might be on a field with no mains power; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Comparing your options
For crew catering, sandwiches are easy but uninspiring. A hot meal keeps crew happy. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
