Step by step
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we’ll help you choose a spot with room for a queue. We can serve in the rain, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. A December market in Heath End loses the light at about 3:55pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:25pm.

- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
