Booked for Birthday party for kids

Thank you to Michael at Blooming Dough for a great event on 31st May. Michael was very friendly and professional and clearly very passionate about pizza! The pizzas were delicious and a real crowd pleaser, everyone from the age of 5 to 75 loved them. Great base and really tasty toppings, cooked to perfection. Even the pizza afficionados were impressed! I'd highly recommend and we would definitely book Blooming Dough again.

Booked for Wedding

Pizza Addicts were amazing! We threw a festival themed wedding and they matched our vibe perfectly. They arrived on time and without fuss - for the evening food … and there was sooo much food! All the guests mention how good it was - and gluten free and vegan people were so well catered for (just brilliant). My personal favourite was the mushroom. Thank you.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to hire a food van in the UK?

In the UK, you should plan to spend between £8 and £25 per person to hire a food van. The price for an event ranges from £350 and £745 depending on the food van you select on the Poptop website. By inputting your party's information and viewing real-time prices and availability on the Poptop website, you can hire a food van in a few easy steps. Send a reservation request and book a date by making a deposit. The supplier will confirm your booking.

What menus are available?

Each food van caterer has a unique menu, but they all typically offer a side dish in addition to the main dish with a simple topping. Additionally, other types of toppings can be served. Consider tacos with salsa, guacamole, refried beans, lettuce, and other toppings as desired, or burritos with Mexican rice, cheese, refried beans, and pico de gallo. For vegetarians, vegans, gluten-free eaters, and those who avoid dairy products, the menus can be modified. However, this needs to be discussed with the vendor in advance of the event.
