Questions from Racton
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.
Which station should guests use for Racton?
The closest is Southbourne station, roughly 2.1 miles away.
How long do you serve for?
We get there well before service to set up. The length of service is agreed when you book, along with pack-down.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can you keep it mild?
That is your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
What if the timings change?
Tell us and we will adjust. We stay in touch with your coordinator and serve when you’re ready.
Do you do parties at home?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
Planning for every diet
We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Enquire early for summer Saturdays
- Introduce us to your venue coordinator
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
- Give us separate day and evening numbers
On the day, we work with your coordinator or toastmaster, so you do not have to.
Tell us if you need plates, cutlery or staff, and we’ll confirm what’s possible with your quote.
Step by step
When service finishes, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. In Racton, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means evening food is generally served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 4:00pm.
- We start with your date, venue, guest numbers and ideas for the day.
- We plan the food with you: wedding breakfast, evening food or both.
- We agree access, timings, power and water with you and your venue.
- On the day, we set up and serve on cue, around speeches and photos.
- Once service is done, we pack away quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
How to get a price
