FAQs for Ruckinge
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary Magdalene: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself is not where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Is Ruckinge close to London?
It is about 52 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
How long are you on site?
We get there well before service to set up. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but your guests will want somewhere covered, like a marquee or gazebo.
Can you cater for children?
Yes. We can keep dishes mild, and simple options such as quesadillas or nachos can be part of the menu. Include children in your numbers.
