Common questions

How far in advance should I contact Farm To Tables to secure a catering date?

While not explicitly stated, catering services typically require 2-4 weeks' notice for standard events, though this may vary. Contact them directly at +44 7914 543872 to confirm booking windows for your specific event date and guest count.

What happens if my guest count changes closer to the event date?

Catering services usually have modification cut-off dates (typically 7-14 days before). Reach out early to establish their specific policies on final headcount adjustments and whether changes incur additional fees.

Do they provide staff to serve, or is it self-service catering?

This is essential to clarify before booking. Ask whether they offer full service with waiting staff, bartending, or if they provide drop-off catering where you manage serving. This significantly impacts your overall event logistics.

Are they equipped to handle events at external venues, or do they operate from their location only?

Confirm whether Farm To Tables delivers and sets up at your chosen venue, or if catering is provided from their Monica Rd location. This affects your event format and guest experience planning.

What's included in their pricing beyond food costs?

When requesting pricing, specifically ask about included items: service staff, equipment rentals, setup/breakdown, gratuity expectations, and travel charges. This prevents surprise costs during event planning.

Can they accommodate specific dietary requirements and cultural cuisine preferences?

Ask about their menu flexibility and whether they can create custom menus for diverse dietary needs (halal, kosher, religious observances) or specific cuisine requests relevant to your event theme.
