Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We need:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements

What else we do in Cold Harbour
Cold Harbour: your questions answered
Do you cater in villages like Cold Harbour?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Is it possible to have you in Spuckles and Kennelling Woods?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
Do you need electricity?
Tell us what the site has, for example a supply from the venue, and we will confirm what we need with your quote.
Do you do crew catering?
We can. We can cook for crew, volunteers or a hospitality area as well as, or instead of, a public stall.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu, served alongside the meat options.
Do you need power?
Send pitch details and we will confirm.

Should I do it myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Popular choices
Quesadillas
A good choice for families.
Burrito bowls
Rice, beans, filling and toppings in a bowl.
