Questions from Southernden
Do you cater in villages like Southernden?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Where can the truck park?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we’ll check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.

A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
What does it cost to hire the truck?
Each hire is quoted individually, based on guest numbers, the menu, the location and service times. Contact us for a quote.

A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At a festival we trade to the public; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
