Common questions in Runcton

Will you travel to a small place like Runcton?

Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

What’s the nearest station to Runcton for guests?

Guests can use Chichester station, about 1.9 miles north-west of Runcton.

Do you have vegan options?

Yes. Our stall menu includes vegan and gluten-free options, with allergen information for every dish.

What documents can you send?

Send your requirements and we will respond with our documents.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.

What access do you need?

Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.

Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Please ask us. Let us know what you already have, and we will confirm what’s included with your quote.

Who clears up?

We pack down and tidy our own area after service. For anything beyond that, such as guests’ tables, ask us.

Mexican street food or something else?

How the day works

Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. By late September, it’s dark in Runcton at around 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.

  1. First, we check the dates.
  2. We agree the menu and the pitch.
  3. Paperwork goes over in good time.
  4. The hatch opens when the event does.
  5. We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

Ask for a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to drop us a line using the enquiry form. Give us the details of your event, and we will put together a menu and price.

Organising for someone else?

For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

DIY taco night versus a caterer

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.

Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.

Planning for every diet

We cater for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests. To make it work smoothly:

  • Agree when vehicles can move on site
  • Share power and water details early
  • Check every diet is covered by the line-up
  • Ask traders about serving speed at peak times

At the end, we clear the pitch and leave it clean.
