For planners, venues and organisers

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.

Space, access and the venue

Before the day, we’ll agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
  • Power and water, which we confirm with you for each booking
  • A spot away from buildings, windows and neighbours

For somewhere as remote as Merstone, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Common questions in Merstone

Can you serve near the sea around Merstone?

Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.

Do you come out to small places like Merstone?

Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.

Do you do parties at home?

It depends on access. If the truck or trailer can’t reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.

Do you have options for kids?

Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.

What documents can you provide?

Send us the venue’s requirements.

What’s on the menu?

Mexican street food: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas.

Can you plan for allergies?

Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
