Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Flat, firm ground
For somewhere as remote as Puckpool, early notice helps us plan the trip, the route in and power.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What affects the price in Puckpool
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Timings and hours
- How many staff you need
- Distance and access to the venue
- The menu you choose
The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- What you’d like on the menu
- The address or venue name
- Expected numbers
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Working with your venue
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Tell us how long you have for food and drinks.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
If crew or volunteer meals are booked, they’re served at the agreed times.
Aguas frescas and soft drinks at the stall.
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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
How it works
We work to your timings. If things run behind, tell us and we will adjust the start of service where we can. Late-September events in Puckpool see sunset at about 7:10pm, so an evening programme will run partly after dusk. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We send our menu, needs and the documents you ask for.
- We set up in the agreed window.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
How to prepare
