Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.

- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
