Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: where vehicles can park, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Step by step
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Evening events in Acton have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we’re ready before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Preparing for the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
