As long as the ground is firm and level, with clearance overhead, we are comfortable parking at most venues. The van needs a space about 6 metres long and 2.65 metres wide, with about 12 feet (3.7 metres) of headroom. Our serving hatch is on the passenger side of the van and opens out a further 0.9 metres (3 feet), which is worth bearing in mind when you plan where we will park. Please tell us about narrow gates, low branches or height barriers on the way in.

Not always. Your venue’s electric hook-up lets us run silently, which is ideal if you would like a quiet service. If we are serving away from a power supply, we bring our own suitcase generator, which makes a small amount of noise.

Private events booked in advance, where you are providing food for your guests and know your numbers. That includes weddings, parties and corporate events. We also cater charity, church and school events and sports presentation evenings. The organiser books and pays for the food in advance.

We travel to venues within about 35 miles of Swadlincote. Sometimes we can go a little further, depending on the size of the event. See the areas we cover.

At busy times we cater 5 to 7 events a week, so we are not able to offer site visits. A phone or video call works just as well. Tell us about access, parking and the ground where the van will stand. If you prefer, you can send photos.

At events in open or public spaces, you can give each guest a token, such as a raffle ticket or a poker chip. Guests hand their token in at the hatch. Tokens are provided by you as the host.

We arrive 45 minutes to an hour before service to set up and start cooking. Freshly cooked food goes onto our hot hold, which we keep topped up throughout service. The last few guests’ meals are cooked to order, so nothing goes to waste. Nothing on our menus takes longer than 6 minutes to cook.

Most venues sell their own drinks. If you do need us to bring them, we can supply bottled water or cans of pop at £1 each. This must be arranged in advance.

Since COVID, we no longer take waste away on the van. Please make sure there are bins for the trays, cutlery and sachets. The trays are recyclable and empty sachets go in general waste.

Yes. Our risk assessments, gas safety certificates, insurance details and any other compliance documents your venue needs are available on request. We also hold the top food hygiene rating of 5 (very good).
