FAQs for Barcombe Cross
Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Is Barcombe Cross close to London?
Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you cater for vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free guests?
We plan carefully for diets and keep options separate, but we cannot promise a kitchen without traces of any allergen. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What do you serve?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. Our sample menu has more ideas.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop service from the hatch. Have somewhere covered ready for guests.
Do you have vegan options?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Can you serve drinks as well?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. We will go through the licensing with you before the day.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire, including Barcombe Cross.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Let us know if a guest is coeliac
- Ensure the menu has a vegan option
- Have a covered area ready in case of rain
- Confirm the venue is happy to have a catering vehicle
If you’ve chosen a taco bar, the fillings, salsas and toppings go out on a serving table, and guests help themselves.
A tray of loaded nachos works well to start.
