THE SHARING FEAST

What can you expect?

Have your guests be seated whilst we provide our relaxed yet professional sharing style service. Our experienced staff bring boards and bowls laden with food from our classic vehicle, with a built in wood fired oven, to the centre of your tables for guests to share and enjoy. And yes, we clear away the plates at the end! We can serve up to 160 guests with one vehicle, but there's nothing stopping us bringing more than one!
