Shorthampton: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of All Saints?
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.
Will you travel to a small place like Shorthampton?
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.

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we will plan the menu around them.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we cannot promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.

We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings on a serving table, and guests build their own tacos. Our staff keep it hot and topped up.

Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
