For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The number of people
- Travel to Four Ashes
- Plates or china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
