Planning an event in Ockford Ridge?
Step by step
From set-up to service, we look after everything you’ve booked from us, so you can spend time with your guests. At midsummer, events in Ockford Ridge stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- You send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- You get our stall menu, what we need at the pitch and the paperwork you request.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
Getting a price
Not sure what you need yet? No problem: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we will suggest a menu. To start, send a quick message through our quote form.

What we need at the venue
We serve from a truck or trailer, so where we park matters. These are the things we check:
- Trader information and site rules

- Vehicle access to the pitch for set-up and break-down
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.

Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To get it right:

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Whether you add a drinks bar or food
- What the venue already provides
- How many staff you need
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What you’d like on the menu
- Gate widths, slopes and the ground
- What power and water the site has
