Prices and what affects them

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • How long we are needed on site
  • Travel, parking and access
  • Whether you add a drinks bar or food
  • What the venue already provides

The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • What you’d like on the menu
  • What power and water the site has
  • How we drive in and where we can park
  • The venue or postcode

We need only a few details to quote: date, location, guest numbers and diets. Contact us for a quote: just fill in our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses

DIY taco night or a caterer?

Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.

What happens on the day

From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can enjoy your party. For a winter party in Glyndebourne, it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, so plan lighting where guests queue and eat. At midsummer, sunset is about 9:15pm.

  1. First, we check the date and the space.
  2. You pick the fillings and extras.
  3. Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
  4. Service starts at the agreed time.
  5. We tidy up and leave you to enjoy the party.

Before we arrive

  • Name one person we can ask on the day
