The process
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. By late September, sunset in Chilworth comes at roughly 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.
- 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 put together a drinks menu, with alcohol-free choices, and quote for it.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- After service, we clear the bar away.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Ask the venue about power and water

Chilworth questions

Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking for the truck or trailer.
Could you come to a seaside event near Chilworth?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades normally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.

Do you have alcohol-free drinks?
Always. Aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata are alcohol-free.
Do we need a licence for the bar?
It depends on the venue. If the venue has no licence, a Temporary Event Notice may be needed. We talk it through with you.

Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.

It is up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
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, with allergen information for every dish.
