Planning an event in Cowes?
The process
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. After-work summer parties in Cowes have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where people queue.
- You send us the date, venue, headcount, timings and dietary needs.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, plus any documents the site needs from caterers.
- We arrange arrival times and access with your facilities team.
- On the day we arrive, set up and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain

Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Organising for someone else?
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on timings and set-up.
Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the space and tell us about the drive and gates, and we’ll let you know if it’s a good fit.

- Permission from the venue or landowner

Common questions in Cowes
Do you cater at coastal events near Cowes?
We can, given firm ground and the landowner’s permission. Beaches and promenades usually need the council’s agreement, so check that first.
Do you need electricity?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Tell us what’s available at your venue.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Tell us how many guests need dairy-free food, and we’ll include them in the plan.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
How is the food prepared?
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance, then finished and kept hot on site. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you give allergen information?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, and give allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. If a guest has a severe allergy, please talk to us before the event.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote, and we will keep their options separate.
