Prices and what affects them
Each price is built from:
- How long the roast and service take
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Crockery choices
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your date and serving time
- What the outdoor space is like
- Dietary requirements
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.
