West Thorney questions
How far is West Thorney from London?
It’s about 59 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Eames Farm?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
How much space do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a level spot to park, space for guests to queue and a little room for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
Do you do crew catering?
Yes, timed to your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Who clears up?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
Do you need power and water?
It depends on the event and the set-up, so we confirm power and water arrangements with each booking. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
Can you handle a lunchtime rush?
Tell us expected visitor numbers and we’ll plan for peak times, so queues keep moving.
Do you do margaritas?
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.
Step by step
When service finishes, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. A December market in West Thorney loses the light at about 4:00pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.

- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
