- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How long we’re needed on site
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- How many staff you need
- Guest numbers
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Our quote sets out what’s included.
What we need to know
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Your menu ideas
- What power and water the site has
- Expected numbers
- The address or venue name
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: venue, timings, menu ideas and access. To send your details, drop us a line using the enquiry form.
