Princelett: your questions answered
Could you come to a seaside event near Princelett?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Do you cater in villages like Princelett?
Yes, we cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates, ground and parking.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. We will check the licensing for alcohol with you.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings. Read our taco bar guide.
Do you provide allergen information for each dish?
We plan allergen-aware menus, including for nut allergies, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we can’t promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you have gluten-free options?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, made with corn tortillas. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can explain how we prepare their food.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s agreement. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Do you need water?
Send pitch details and we’ll confirm.

What we need at the venue

Dietary needs and planning tips
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
We keep in touch with your traders’ contact on the day on any changes.
