Fantastic crepes! Sweet and savoury were equally delicious and enjoyed by all. Service was quick, even with just one person for all the guests. I had two guests ask for details to book for their own parties so that says it all!

Hiring a Crepes Van in Leicester: the buyer’s guide

If you’re looking for a crowd-pleasing food option that feels indulgent without being over the top, a crepes van is hard to beat. Warm, freshly made crepes have that rare ability to make people smile before they’ve even taken a bite. In Leicester, they fit beautifully into the city’s lively, multicultural food scene and work just as well at a community fair as they do at a university graduation or street food festival.

We’ve helped organise more events than we can count, and crepes vans consistently sit near the top of the “why didn’t we think of this sooner?” list. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about hiring a crepes van in Leicester, from where they work best to how much you should budget. By the end, you’ll know exactly how to serve something memorable, delicious, and refreshingly easy to organise.

Why crepes vans work so well in Leicester

Leicester is a city that loves food. From bustling markets to family-focused community events, people here appreciate variety, flavour, and a bit of theatre. A crepes van ticks all three boxes.

There’s something wonderfully inclusive about crepes. Sweet or savoury, simple or fully loaded, they suit almost every age group and dietary preference. At public events like street food festivals or community fairs, they offer a familiar option that still feels special. At private celebrations, they bring a relaxed, sociable energy that encourages guests to mingle while they wait for their order.

Leicester’s outdoor-friendly spaces also help. Parks, campuses, and village halls provide exactly the sort of flexible setting where a mobile food setup shines.

Events that are perfect for crepes vans

Crepes vans are surprisingly versatile, which is why we recommend them for such a wide range of Leicester events.

  • Street food festivals are an obvious win. A crepes van adds variety to the line-up and draws people in with the smell alone. They’re quick to serve, visually appealing, and easy for guests to eat while walking around.
  • University graduations and campus events are another strong match. Crepes feel celebratory without being fussy, and they work well for mixed groups of students, families, and staff.
  • Community fairs and village events also benefit hugely. Crepes appeal to children, parents, and grandparents alike, which makes them a safe but still exciting choice when you’re catering for a broad audience.

We also regularly see crepes vans hired for birthday parties, engagement celebrations, school events, and corporate fun days. If the atmosphere is friendly and informal, they usually fit right in.

Sam's grandmother (named Eden) used to live in Provence where she ran a small creperie in her spare time catering to the locals in her village. Childhood friends Ryan and Sam decided to carry on her legacy in 2016, using her original equipment, eco-friendly paper plates and a custom-built crepe trailer. We offer a wide selection of sweet and savoury crepes including using Eden's traditional French batter, modernised with our own GF and vegan options.

Choosing the right location in Leicester

One of the big advantages of a crepes van is flexibility, but it’s still worth thinking carefully about your location.

  • Outdoor parks are a popular option, particularly places like Abbey Park. These spaces give you room for queues, seating areas, and the general buzz that comes with outdoor events.
  • University campuses are another excellent setting. They’re typically well-equipped for events, with good access, clear layouts, and a ready-made audience.
  • Village halls and community centres work well for slightly smaller or more local events. As long as there’s suitable outdoor space or parking nearby, a crepes van can serve guests efficiently.

Wherever you choose, it’s important to think about access for the van, proximity to power if needed, and enough space for guests to queue comfortably.

Themes that suit Leicester perfectly

One of the joys of hiring a crepes van is how easily it can be themed to suit your event. Leicester offers plenty of inspiration here.

  • A Leicester Market vibe is a natural fit. Think classic crepes served quickly, simple toppings, and a lively, informal atmosphere.
  • Bollywood-inspired toppings are another brilliant option and a nod to Leicester’s rich cultural mix. Sweet crepes with spiced chocolate, coconut, fruit, or cardamom-infused sauces can feel both familiar and exciting.
  • For something playful, a retro carnival theme always goes down well. Colourful branding, traditional sweet toppings, and that nostalgic fairground feeling make crepes vans especially popular at family events.

What’s usually on the menu

Most crepes vans offer a mix of sweet and savoury options, which keeps everyone happy.

  • Sweet crepes often include classics like sugar and lemon, chocolate spread, fresh fruit, and cream. Some suppliers go further with sauces, syrups, and seasonal toppings.
  • Savoury crepes can include cheese, ham, mushrooms, or vegetarian-friendly fillings. These are particularly popular at lunchtime events.
  • Dietary requirements: It’s common to find gluten-free or dairy-free options available, which is worth checking if you’re catering for a diverse group.

How much does it cost to hire a crepes van in Leicester?

Budget is always a big question. In Leicester, you can generally expect to pay between £350 and £650 per event for a crepes van. Where you land in that range depends on a few factors:

  1. Length of service
  2. Number of guests
  3. Menu complexity

Smaller community events or shorter bookings tend to sit at the lower end. Larger festivals, longer service times, or more elaborate menus usually push the price up.

Planning tips for a smooth experience

A little planning goes a long way when it comes to mobile catering.

  • Timing: Crepes are popular, so consider whether you want continuous service or a specific window when food is served. This helps manage queues.
  • Practical details: Access for the van, space for queues, and any power requirements should all be confirmed in advance.
  • Guest communication: A clear sign explaining what’s on offer or how ordering works can make the experience smoother, especially at busy public events.
