The Practical Bits

Our Setup & Logistics

We know you've got a million things to think about when planning an event. Here's exactly what we bring, what we need, and how we leave things afterwards.

Our setup

  • Professional 3×3 metre gazebo (we bring our own)
  • Full cooking station with commercial-grade grills
  • Serving counter with all utensils and servingware
  • Branded setup - looks great at any event
  • We’re fully self-contained - we just need a flat surface

Timings & schedule

  • We arrive approximately 2 hours before serving time
  • Setup takes around 45 minutes to an hour
  • Remaining time used for food prep and heating grills
  • Service lengths from 2.5 hours up to full-day events
  • Flexible start times - lunch, dinner or late-night

What we need from you

  • Access to your venue at the agreed arrival time
  • A flat area of roughly 4×4 metres for our gazebo
  • Access to a power source within 20 metres (if available)
  • Ideally a water source nearby (not essential, we can bring our own)
  • That’s it - we handle everything else

After the event

  • We pack down all equipment and structures
  • All cooking waste and rubbish is taken away by us
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • No mess, no stress - you just enjoy the memories
  • Typical pack-down takes around 30–45 minutes
