Common questions in Shortfield Common
Could you serve in Underdown nature reserve?
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.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are easy to plan for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
What about supplier meals?
Yes, include them in your numbers. Tell us when they’ll eat.
Is the food very hot?
That’s your choice: we can keep it mild and put the hotter salsas on the side.
Can we add margaritas?
You can add our drinks bar, with margaritas, Mexican beer and aguas frescas. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we’ll check that with you.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Tell us the venue’s rules on waste and clearing up and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Planning for every diet
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Check the venue’s rules for outside caterers and vehicles
- Add your band and photographer to the numbers
- Share your running order, including speeches
- Collect dietary needs on the RSVP
Evening food is served at the agreed time, such as after the cake is cut.
A wider choice of salsas and toppings fills out the taco bar.
Should I do it myself?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
- Room for a queue in front of the serving hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.
What we offer
- Margarita bar
- Guacamole and salsas
- Nachos to share
- Evening tacos
- Burritos and bowls
- Taco bar wedding breakfast
