Common questions in Swanley Village
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of Saint Paul?
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.
What if the weather’s bad?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.

We cater across London and the South East, Kent included. See all areas.
Will someone run the bar?
Yes, our bar staff serve your guests. Responsible serving comes first.

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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
