Other catering in Chailey
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
What happens on the day
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. By late September, sunset in Chailey comes at roughly 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and what you’d like to serve.
- We check the licensing with you: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Give us your final numbers and diets
