What affects the price in Preston
We quote for your event, and the price is based on:
- How many guests we’re serving
- Whether you need disposables
- The menu you choose
- How many staff you need
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- A photo of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Where the event is
- Your date and when you want service to start
- How we drive in and where we can park
To get a price, just tell us about it on our contact page. Tell us about your event in Preston, and we’ll suggest a menu to suit.
Comparing your options
Some street food is slow to serve one order at a time. With fillings prepared ahead, service is fast. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Other catering in Preston
Can I do a taco night myself?
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Planning for every diet
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Plan seating near the food area
- Share vehicle access times with traders
