What else we do in Shanklin
For event organisers in Shanklin
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Planning the serving area
We serve from a truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer
- A sensible distance from buildings and neighbours
For somewhere as remote as Shanklin, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Common questions in Shanklin
Do you cater at coastal events near Shanklin?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
What’s the nearest station to Shanklin for guests?
Guests can use Shanklin station, which is right in Shanklin.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, like a marquee or gazebo.
Do you do Christmas parties?
We can, in any season, but guests will need a covered, warm space to eat.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?
Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
Yes, and it helps to hear about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
