Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Ask for allergen information at each stall
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
- Put all trader information in one pack
Crew meals are served at set times.
Vegan tacos alongside the rest.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it is more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Where the truck can go in Uckfield
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Room for the truck or trailer and customers
- Your trader pack and site rules
- Vehicle access before and after the event
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The number of people
- Whether you need disposables
- Staff for serving and the bar
- Timings and hours
Pricing depends on the event. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
