A Mexican drinks bar in South Ambersham: local tips
South Ambersham is about 10 miles north of Chichester, in West Sussex. From the centre of South Ambersham to the outskirts, we offer the same service: a truck or trailer at your event, options for every diet and a clear price. We serve in 371 places across West Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. Our truck and trailer cover the area from South Ambersham to Guildford (about 19 miles away).
Once the ceremony at a church like Church of St James is over, guests may be glad of a cold drink at the reception venue. Around South Ambersham, historic houses include Cowdray House (1.7 miles north-west) and Petworth House (3.8 miles east). Before booking a historic venue, find out whether it lets an outside bar bring a vehicle on site. The South Downs National Park is within about 2 miles of South Ambersham, a lovely setting for drinks outdoors. Ask your venue about vehicle access for the truck or trailer.

How the day works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we will adjust where we can. Sunset in South Ambersham is around 9:20pm in June, so a summer drinks bar can run into the evening in daylight. String lights or lanterns near the hatch make a later bar easier to find.
- You tell us the date, venue, guest numbers and the drinks you have in mind.
- We talk through licensing with you, whether that’s the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
- We suggest a drinks list and send a quote.
- On the day we set up the bar and our bar staff serve your guests.
- When the bar closes, we pack down and clear our area.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

FAQs for South Ambersham
Do you come to events in the South Downs National Park?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St James?
Yes. The church itself isn’t 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’ll check the access.
How much is the bar?
We don’t publish set prices, because every event is different. Tell us your plans for a quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
How long do you serve for?
It depends on your event. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies and we’ll talk it through.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not normally 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.
Is the food very hot?
It’s up to you: we can keep the main dishes mild, with hotter salsas served separately. Read more about how spicy Mexican food is.
Should I do it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.
