Bexley questions
Is parking a problem for events in Bexley?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will plan unloading around it.
Can you cook in Danson Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Can you cook indoors?
Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.
Do you come to Bexley?
Yes, we do. Bexley is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Tell us about your event, and we’ll reply with our availability and what we need.
What we need at the venue
Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We look for:
- A pitch away from tents and structures
- Room for our cooking and serving area
- Trader information and site rules
Bexley is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before you book.
