Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Timings and hours
- How many staff you need
- Parking and the route in
- Whether you need disposables
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and allergy numbers
- The address or venue name
- A picture of the space, if it’s a garden or field
- Your date and when you want service to start
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
How the day works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. By late September, it is dark in Teasley Mead at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Find out what power and water are available
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. To send them, use our quote form.

- Vehicle access before and after the event
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
- Flat, firm ground
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
