Lower Higham: your questions answered
How far is Lower Higham from London?
It is about 25 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Will you travel to a small place like Lower Higham?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
How is the food prepared?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
How much space do you need?
The main things are access and a level spot: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a picture of the space and the way in.
Can you cater in a back garden?
It depends on access. A drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission, if the garden itself is out of reach. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
Do you provide plates and napkins?
Ask us when you enquire. Tell us what your venue provides, and we will set out plates, napkins and cutlery in your quote.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes, a taco bar is one of the ways we serve. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll suggest the best set-up.
