If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
- Access to the cooking area
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
To get the best quote, tell us:
- An estimate of numbers
- Any venue rules
- Where the event is
- The date and when you’d like to eat
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
- Check whether anyone avoids pork or beef so the menu has enough choice
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Keep the meat-free options clearly labelled
We bring everything we need to cook and serve, so you don’t need to find grills or tongs.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
Step by step
