The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will plan the vegan burgers or sausages.

Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Stoke Row are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Diets, allergies and alternatives

If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
