Common questions in Locksgreen

Do you cater at coastal events near Locksgreen?

Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Seafront and beach spots typically need permission, and wind is the main thing to plan for.

Do you come out to small places like Locksgreen?

Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

What do you serve?

We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga, beef birria and vegan options such as spiced mushrooms or black beans. See our menu for ideas.

Do you bring staff to serve the drinks?

We bring bar staff, and serve throughout the agreed hours.

Can you come to a private house?

Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Tell us about the drive, gates and any slopes, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

Are plates and napkins included?

Ask us when you enquire. Let us know what you already have, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.

Do you do margaritas?

Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We’ll check the licensing for alcohol with you.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, the Isle of Wight included. Find your area.

What we need at the venue

If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:

  • Firm, level ground where we can set up
  • A premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice in place
  • Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking

Locksgreen is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey and access for the truck or trailer.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.

How the day works

A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Winter receptions in Locksgreen are dark by about 4:00pm in December, so an outdoor bar needs lighting from the start. At midsummer, by contrast, sunset is around 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. We check the licensing with you.
  3. We agree a drinks menu.
  4. We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
  5. We pack down when the bar closes.

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park

Should I do it myself?

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, with allergen information
