Patcham: your questions answered
We are having a ceremony at All Saints Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
How far is Patcham from London?
It’s about 44 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Can you keep it mild?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately.
What happens if it rains?
We can serve from the hatch in the rain. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas and soft drinks. Your venue or event may need the right licence for alcohol, so we will talk licensing through with you.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you follow the rules on serving alcohol?
Always. No alcohol is served to under-18s, and anyone who has had too much won’t be served more.
What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A flat, firm spot for the bar
- A clear area in front of the bar
- Somewhere to park and unload nearby

Patcham is about 2 miles north of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. Wherever your event is in the BN1 area, we can bring the truck or trailer to you. Patcham is one of 30 towns and villages in Brighton and Hove we cover.
A drinks bar at a garden or hall near a church like All Saints Church gives guests something to enjoy while photos are taken. Guests travelling by rail: Preston Park station is about 1.3 miles away. An outdoor bar near the South Downs National Park, within about 5 miles of Patcham, needs firm ground and a way in, plus the right licensing, which we will check with you. With the sea within about 4 miles, a seaside drinks reception is an option. Seafront spots normally need permission, especially for alcohol, and the truck or trailer needs firm ground.
