What else we do in Ashton Green
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Planning drinks for every guest
Some planning tips for the drinks:
- Add food if the bar runs for a while
- Include aguas frescas for non-drinkers
- Give us numbers for children
- Agree bar timings in advance
We arrive in good time to set up the bar, so drinks are ready when you are.
Margaritas for the drinks reception.
The process
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive and set up, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. Evening drinks in Ashton Green stay light until about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. For a bar running past dusk, ask the venue about outdoor lighting.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that is the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Give us your final numbers and diets

Ashton Green questions
We are having a ceremony at The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. We’d serve at the reception venue rather than at the church itself. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station is closest to Ashton Green?
Guests can use Glynde station, about 2.1 miles south of Ashton Green.
What about power on site?
Let us know what’s available on site, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How spicy is the food?
That’s your choice: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes. Dairy-free options are part of our menus, and we will tell you which dishes contain milk.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas and toppings to choose from. Read our taco bar guide.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Are plates and napkins included?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
