Lodsworth: venues, access and licensing
Lodsworth is about 11 miles east of Petersfield, in West Sussex. For Mexican bar hire in Lodsworth, we plan around your venue and timings: a clear quote, agreed timings and fresh service on the day. Lodsworth is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we can bring Mexican bar hire. Our nearest city page is Guildford, about 18 miles away.
If you’re looking at a historic venue around Lodsworth, check its rules on outside bars and vehicles early. Once the ceremony at a church like The Parish Church of St Peter is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue. The South Downs National Park is within about 3 miles of Lodsworth, a lovely setting for drinks outdoors. Ask your venue about vehicle access for the truck or trailer.
Anywhere in GU28, we can bring the truck or trailer to your guests. That could mean an event at a home with a drive on The Street, Shepherds Lane and The Croft or the roads around them. For events just outside Lodsworth, we cover Lickfold (2 miles north), Lurgashall (2 miles north), Ebernoe (4 miles north-east), Northchapel (4 miles north-east) and Ansteadbrook (6 miles north). Further out, we also cater in Bognor Regis (15 miles south), Chichester (12 miles south), Littlehampton (15 miles south-east), Emsworth (15 miles south-west), Rustington (15 miles south-east) and Storrington (12 miles south-east).

- Local pubs include The Hollist Arms Public House (within half a mile south)
Mexican bar hire or something else?
A self-service drinks table is simple but can run dry or go warm. A staffed bar keeps everything under control. Pricing depends on the event. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Your quote sets it all out.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
How the day works
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. A late-September party in Lodsworth loses the light at about 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.
- Send us your date, venue, numbers and drinks ideas.
- Together we check how alcohol will be licensed at your event.
- You get a suggested drinks menu and a quote.
- On the day, our bar staff serve drinks responsibly at the agreed times.
- We pack away when the bar shuts and leave the area tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers

Lodsworth questions
How far is Lodsworth from London?
It’s about 43 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. The drinks bar can be added to food or booked on its own. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you give allergen information?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Can you cater for guests who avoid dairy?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, gluten-free options are available, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can explain how we prepare their food.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It’s worth planning a covered area for guests, and let us know if the ground gets soft after heavy rain.
