Common questions

Can On The Roll accommodate last-minute catering requests for events?

With their closure Friday through Sunday and limited weekday hours (10:00 AM - 3:15 PM), last-minute requests are challenging. Contact them directly at +44 7563 234855 as soon as you know your event needs to confirm availability and minimum notice requirements. Planning at least 24-48 hours in advance provides better flexibility.

What if my event is on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

On The Roll operates Monday through Thursday only. For weekend events, you'll need to order in advance on Thursday or select an alternative catering provider. Consider ordering Thursday afternoon for Friday events if they offer next-day pickup/delivery options.

Do they provide delivery to event venues around Edinburgh, or is it pickup only?

The website and description don't specify delivery services. Contact them directly at +44 7563 234855 or visit http://www.ontheroll.co.uk/ to confirm whether they deliver to your venue location, deliver within Edinburgh city center only, or operate on a pickup-only basis from George Square.

What menu options are available, and can they handle dietary requirements?

Specific menu details aren't provided in their standard information. Call +44 7563 234855 or check their website to review current offerings, pricing, and their ability to accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergy-related dietary needs for your event attendees.

How is pricing structured—per person, per meal order, or minimum spending?

Pricing is quoted on a case-by-case basis. Contact them directly with your event details (number of guests, meal preferences, delivery needs) to receive a customized quote. This also gives you opportunity to negotiate for larger group orders.

Can they handle events with 50+ guests, or are they better suited for smaller gatherings?

Their takeaway format and limited operating hours suggest they work best with smaller to medium groups. Call +44 7563 234855 to discuss capacity for larger events—they may have production limits or may require split orders depending on event size.
