Mexican catering in Caversham Park Village, served fresh
Tacos are the heart of the menu: warmed tortillas, a choice of fillings, and salsas, guacamole and toppings to finish. We can add burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas. We serve fresh salsas and guacamole, quesadillas and burrito bowls, and it suits retirement and leaving parties and family gatherings and christenings.
There may be a hall or club near Caversham Park Village if your garden is small; any can work, given permission and level ground to park on. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
How the day works
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Around midsummer it stays light in Caversham Park Village until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and how many.
- Expect a suggested menu and a quote.
- Nearer the date, we go over the final plan.
- At the agreed time, service starts from the truck or trailer.
- We pack away when service is over.

With a little notice, most diets are easy. Our advice:
