Space, access and the venue
Everything is served from our truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
- The event’s site rules and timings
London streets around Finchley can be narrow and busy, and all of Greater London sits inside the ULEZ. Tell us about loading, permits and any parking suspension when you enquire.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. By late September, it’s dark in Finchley at around 7:05pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Preparing for the day
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Tell us what power and water the site has
Ask for a quote
