FAQs

Questions people usually ask before booking

What time can you deliver breakfast?

We can handle morning service, but the exact start time matters. Send the earliest serve time in the quote so we can confirm staffing and travel.

What is included in the breakfast package?

Breakfast burritos with protein choices, a chilaquiles pan, pico, sour cream, and tomatillo salsa. Coffee or agua fresca can be added if you want a fuller setup.

What are the minimums?

Breakfast pricing starts at 25 guests. Smaller groups can still book with the minimum charge applied.

Is breakfast usually drop-off or staffed?

Breakfast is most often drop-off with hot pans ready to serve. If the event needs more setup help, mention that in the quote request.
