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.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Kemsing Down?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
We confirm that with your quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
Can we add margaritas?
Yes, our Mexican drinks bar serves margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Licensing is checked with you and the venue.

Served well, it feels generous and special.
Is the food suitable for children?
