Ashford Common: venues, access and licensing
Ashford Common is about 1 mile north-west of Sunbury-on-Thames, in Surrey. Give us the address of your event in Ashford Common, and we’ll plan the journey and set-up. We serve in all 395 towns and villages across Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater right across the region, from Ashford Common to Guildford (14 miles away).
Serving alcohol in Sunbury Park would need the owner’s permission and probably a licence, so a garden or venue is often simpler. Couples leaving a church such as St Saviour could be greeted with margaritas and aguas frescas at the reception.
We serve at events all over TW15 and TW16 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Saxon Road, Dane Road and Tudor Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby. Nearby, we also cater events in Littleton Common (1 mile south-west), Hounslow (1 mile north-east), Charlton (1 mile south), Sunbury-on-Thames (1 mile south-east) and Ashford (1 mile north-west). Further out, we also cater in Guildford (14 miles south-west), Woking (10 miles south-west), Camberley (14 miles south-west), Epsom (10 miles south-east), Ewell (9 miles south-east) and Egham (5 miles west).
A little further out are Ashford Hospital (1.7 miles north-west) and Kempton Steam Museum (1.5 miles east). Green spaces nearby include St Ann's Hill and Kempton Park Reservoirs.
- Local schools include Sunbury Manor School (1 mile south-east) and Sunbury Manor School (1 mile south-east)
Step by step
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. At midsummer, it is light in Ashford Common until about 9:20pm, so evening drinks can be served in daylight. In late September it’s dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm, so evening bars need lighting.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- We put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Before we arrive
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Find out what power and water are available
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Your questions about Mexican bar hire in Ashford Common
Is Ashford Common close to London?
It’s about 16 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Is it possible to have you in Sunbury Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
Alcohol at an event needs the venue’s premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We talk licensing through with you before the day. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.
Are plates and napkins included?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you need power and water?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we’ll confirm what we need with your quote.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we will suggest the best set-up.
