If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Mountfield weddings: local tips
Mountfield is about 7 miles north-west of Hastings, in East Sussex.

Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

Mountfield: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at The Parish Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
What’s the nearest station to Mountfield?
Robertsbridge station, about 2.3 miles north of the centre.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
