Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
If you are booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
Step by step
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. At midsummer, it’s light in Headington Hill until about 9:25pm, ideal for drinks outdoors. By late September, sunset is about 7:10pm, and in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting around the bar.
- Send us the date, venue and numbers.
- We talk licensing through with you.
- You choose the drinks with us.
- We serve drinks responsibly on the day.
- We clear the bar at the end.
Before we arrive

Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
