Common questions in Charlwood
Will you travel to a small place like Charlwood?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Can we book the bar without food?
Of course. Our Mexican catering can be added too.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you cover Charlwood?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Charlwood is within our area and the rest of Hampshire. For a quote, tell us about it on our contact page.
Do you have a licence to sell alcohol?
You will need either the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice. We talk licensing through with you before the day. GOV.UK explains Temporary Event Notices.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.
Is the food made fresh?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.

Planning drinks for every guest
A few tips to help the bar run smoothly:
- Give the council notice in good time for a Temporary Event Notice
- Plan alcohol-free drinks for drivers
- Share bar opening times
- Tell us how many guests are under 18
We serve responsibly: no alcohol for under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
Aguas frescas for children and non-drinkers.
Should I do it myself?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Contact us for a quote to compare.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
