What happens on the day
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. Winter receptions in Filching are dark by about 3:55pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:15pm.

FAQs for Filching
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of Saint Peter?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Could you come to a seaside event near Filching?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Seafront and beach spots normally need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Our truck and trailer service typically suits events of around 50 to 400 guests. Festivals can be bigger, and smaller parties are quoted case by case. Send us your numbers and we’ll advise.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, if the truck or trailer can get in and park on level, firm ground. Send us a picture of the access and the space.
Can you serve in the rain?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
Do you cater in Filching?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Filching is within our area and the rest of East Sussex. For a quote, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
What does a Mexican bar cost?
Every bar is quoted for individually, based on numbers, drinks and hours. For a price, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
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.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
