Other catering in Colden Common
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Comparing your options
A plated wedding breakfast needs a kitchen and a larger team. We bring our kitchen with us, and the style is more relaxed. 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 will quote.
What you get with us
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Everything served fresh from the hatch
- A menu built around your guests
- Allergen-aware menus
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Space for guests to queue
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking

Questions from Colden Common
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Which station should guests use for Colden Common?
The closest is Shawford station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates go first, so contact us early.
What if our speeches run late?
We plan for it. Food is served to order, so we can start when you are ready.
Who clears up?
We clear our own area when service is finished. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
What do you need at the venue?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. Send us a photo and tell us about gates, slopes and soft ground.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. The tortillas are warmed on site, and the salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Can you serve drinks at our wedding?
Yes, we have a drinks bar, with bar staff serving your guests. Your venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice will be needed for alcohol, and we will check that with you.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.
