How to compare caterers

How the day works

Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our area. A late-September party in Cray's Pond loses the light at about 7:10pm, so a bar running later in the evening needs lamps or festoons. In late May, it stays light until about 8:55pm.

  1. We check availability.
  2. We suggest margaritas, beer, aguas frescas and alcohol-free choices.
  3. We agree where the bar goes.
  4. We set up and serve on cue.
  5. We tidy up at the end.

How to prepare

  • Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Measure any gates or arches on the way in

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Timings and hours
  • What’s on the menu
  • How many staff you need
  • Food, drinks or both

Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed in your quote.

Details that help

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
  • Whether you’d like food, drinks or both
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
  • The date and rough timings

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. Contact us for a quote: just drop us a line using the enquiry form.

DIY taco night or a caterer?

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

How it compares

DIY drinks tables are easy but need constant topping up. Bar staff keep drinks flowing and cold. Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

Why us?

  • A quote that sets out what’s included
  • Options for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan guests
  • Access, space and power checked in advance
  • Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
