What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. A late-September party in Withdean loses the light at about 7:05pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:50pm.

  1. We check availability.
  2. You get a suggested drinks list.
  3. We confirm power, water and the bar spot.
  4. The bar opens at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

FAQs for Withdean

Do you cater at coastal events near Withdean?

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

Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues 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.

Do you need electricity?

It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.

How long are you on site?

We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.

Do you provide plates and napkins?

That is confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.

Can you keep it mild?

We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
