- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after service.

- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Plates or china

Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, we will need:
