Questions from Westenhanger
Will you travel to a small place like Westenhanger?
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.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Is the food suitable for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
What guest numbers do you cater for?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller gatherings are looked at case by case.
Do you need electricity?
That depends on the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That is confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.

We quote for each event, so the price fits what you want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
Do you sell to the public at private events?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, on a menu and timings agreed with you. Festival and market trading is open to the public; see our street food catering page.

What else we do in Westenhanger
Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label anything containing allergens.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. By late September, it is dark in Westenhanger at around 7:00pm, so a later service will need some lighting. A late-May event keeps its light until roughly 8:45pm.
