FAQs for Patching

Which station is closest to Patching?

Goring-By-Sea station, about 2.3 miles south-east of the centre.

Can you serve near the sea around Patching?

We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades generally need the council’s agreement, so check that first.

Where do you cater?

We cater across London and the South East, West Sussex included. Find your area.

How long are you on site?

We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book.

Can you cater in a back garden?

It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Send us a photo and we will talk it through.

Can we have the bar on its own?

Yes, though it pairs well with tacos. Our Mexican catering can be added too.

What can we have at the bar?

Our bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas such as agua de jamaica and horchata, plus alcohol-free choices.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down and leave our area tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll talk it through.

For event organisers in Patching

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

Mexican bar hire or something else?

Some bars offer little for non-drinkers. Aguas frescas give them something special. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

The process

We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. By late September, sunset in Patching comes at roughly 7:05pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:50pm.

  1. We check availability.
  2. We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
  3. We agree where the bar goes.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
