FAQs

The cost of hiring our hot dog van ranges from £8 to £15 per head, depending on the number of guests. For groups under 25 people, a minimum charge of £350 applies.

The price includes one hot dog per person from our standard menu. But we always bring a few extra portions for anyone who wants seconds.

We ask for a 50% deposit to secure your booking. This deposit is fully refundable up to two weeks before your event, and after that we retain it. The remaining balance is due on or shortly after the event.

In order to trade safely and according to law, any food retailer (including food trucks) that sells food to the public has to be registered with the local authority and be subject to inspections that ensure good hygiene practices are upheld. Additionally, event organisers require proof of other certification such as business insurance and certificates that ensure your gas equipment and electrical installations comply with safety standards.
