Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
What affects the price in Claygate Cross
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Guest numbers
- Parking and the route in
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- How many staff you need
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire. Contact us for a quote to compare.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
- Your date and when you want service to start
- The venue or postcode
- What power and water the site has
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send you a clear quote and a suggested menu.

Planning a drinks bar in Claygate Cross
Claygate Cross is about 5 miles east of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Anywhere in TN15, we will come to your venue or site. We cover all 922 towns and villages across Kent. Our nearest city page is London, about 23 miles away.
Once the ceremony at a church like The Church of the Good Shepherd is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue. Serving alcohol in Ivy Hatch Nature Reserve would need the owner’s permission and probably a licence, so a garden or venue is often simpler. The Kent Downs National Landscape is within about 7 miles of Claygate Cross, a lovely setting for drinks outdoors. Ask your venue about vehicle access for the truck or trailer.
Anywhere in TN15, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. From Claygate Cross, Basted Lane and Winfield Lane or anywhere nearby, we can bring Mexican bar hire there, given access.

The process
Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. By late September, sunset in Claygate Cross comes at roughly 7:00pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You get a suggested drinks list.
- We agree where the bar goes.
- The bar opens at the agreed time.
- When the bar shuts, we clear away.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
Ask for a quote
Not sure what you need yet? That is fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll suggest a menu. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.
