FAQs for Mottisfont
Is Mottisfont close to London?
It is about 70 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Andrew?
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.
Do you give allergen information?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you have options for kids?
Of course. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Tell us how many children are coming.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll go through the licensing with you and your venue.
Can children have drinks from the bar?
Always. Aguas frescas and soft drinks are alcohol-free.
Do you provide bar staff?
Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. Responsible serving comes first.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and we may refuse service to anyone who has had too much.
