About our Mexican catering in Spencers Wood
Food from a truck or trailer feels relaxed. Guests come up to the hatch, chat while they wait and take something hot back to their seats. It suits engagement and anniversary parties and company summer parties, with quesadillas, fresh salsas and guacamole and burritos.
In a smaller place like Spencers Wood, your own garden, drive or a local hall is often the simplest option: no venue hire, and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Let us know about the route to the house. Timings are planned around your event, so service starts when you want it.
