How it works
We arrive in good time before service, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. Christmas markets in Brightling trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:15pm.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- Orders are served from the hatch while the event runs.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
