Step by step
Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. Christmas markets in Abinger trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
