How the day works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. By late September, it is dark in Whyteleafe at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Organisers should plan that into the site layout.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and paperwork.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Share the running order, including any speeches
