I urgently required a Waffle & Crepe stand for an event and was so happy to have found Rdg Events. We asked quite a bit from Ruth and she always responded straight away and was happy to change things around to accommodate our requests. The guests loved the waffles and crepes.
Couldn't be happier with our experience with Rdg Event. Thank you for the great service Ruth!

Absolutely brilliant! Waffles and cocktails flew off the shelves, and all guests enjoyed them a great deal. Super tasty fluffy waffles with yummy toppings and carefully crafted cocktails lovingly served. Top notch service. Danesh was amazing; his attention to detail was impressive. I highly recommend their services and will be using them again.

More Than Just a Sweet Treat: Why a Waffle Cart Works in Manchester
A waffle cart just fits the Manchester ethos. It's not stuffy or overly formal. It’s a social hub, a place where guests can gather, chat, and watch their food being made right in front of them. This "live cooking" element adds a fantastic bit of theatre and a welcoming aroma that instantly makes a space feel more inviting.
It’s the perfect icebreaker. Instead of guests standing around awkwardly, they have a natural talking point. The simple act of choosing toppings and waiting for a fresh waffle creates a shared, positive experience. For a city known for its friendly and approachable nature, it’s the perfect culinary centrepiece. Plus, it’s a guaranteed hit on social media, adding a visual splash to your event that guests will be eager to capture and share.
The Ideal Match: Manchester Events Made for Waffles
The beauty of a waffle cart is its versatility. It can be dressed up or down to suit the occasion, making it a brilliant addition to a wide range of Manchester events.
Tech Meetups and Agency Socials: Manchester's digital and creative scenes are booming. A waffle cart is a fantastic, non-corporate perk that shows you're invested in creating a great company culture. It's the perfect fuel for networking or a well-deserved treat for the team after a big project.
City Weddings: With so many unique urban wedding venues in Manchester, from converted mills to chic galleries, a waffle cart complements an indie, modern celebration perfectly. It’s a fun, relaxed alternative to a formal dessert that will delight guests of all ages.
Student Balls: A waffle cart is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for a student crowd. It offers great value, endless customisation, and that fun, festival-food feel that makes a big night feel even more special.
Christmas Parties: When the nights draw in and the festive lights are twinkling, what could be better than a hot, freshly made waffle? It’s the ultimate winter comfort food, perfect for getting everyone in the Christmas spirit.
From Spinningfields to a Studio: Finding the Perfect Venue
One of the best things about Manchester is its diverse range of incredible venues, and a waffle cart can be set up in almost any of them. Their small footprint means you can create a pop-up dessert station in places you might not expect.
Imagine the brilliant contrast of a charming waffle cart inside a sleek, modern office in Spinningfields, adding a splash of warmth and fun to a corporate event. Or picture one set up against the exposed brick of a converted warehouse in Ancoats, enhancing the cool, industrial aesthetic. They’re right at home in creative studios, bustling university campuses, and event spaces across the city. All you typically need is a standard plug socket and a little bit of room, and you’re good to go.

Capturing the Vibe: Themes and Toppings with a Northern Soul
This is your chance to get creative and really lean into Manchester's unique character. You can style your waffle service to create a proper "Northern Quarter street-food vibe" or a cool, "indie dessert bar."
Work with your supplier on a menu that goes beyond the basics. Think about toppings that have a bit of personality:
Crumbled Biscoff and toffee sauce
Artisanal salted caramel and honeycomb pieces
Nutella with fresh strawberries and bananas
A classic lemon and sugar for the purists
For a truly Mancunian twist, you could even ask about a fun, bespoke sauce. A Vimto-infused drizzle, anyone? Most suppliers are happy to work with you on custom ideas and can easily cater for dietary needs like gluten-free or vegan, so no one has to miss out.
Getting Down to Business: Waffle Cart Hire Costs in Manchester
Right, let's talk numbers. One of the great things about hosting an event in Manchester is that your budget often stretches a bit further than it might down south.
For a waffle cart service, you can typically expect the price per person to be somewhere between £6.50 and £10.
Many suppliers also offer all-inclusive packages, which are ideal for events with a fixed budget. These packages generally fall in the range of £550 to £900. This price will almost always cover:
The waffle cart itself, looking smart and professional
Friendly, uniformed staff to cook and serve for a set period (usually 2-3 hours)
All the waffle batter and a generous selection of toppings and sauces
Plates, cutlery, and napkins
All the logistics, including travel, setup, and packing down afterwards
It’s a straightforward and cost-effective way to provide high-quality, memorable catering for your guests.
How to Spot a Top-Notch Waffle Supplier
When you’re choosing your supplier, what separates the good from the great? First off, you want a menu that makes your mouth water just reading it. Look for quality ingredients and a good range of classic and creative toppings.
Secondly, check out their setup. The cart is part of your event's look, so you want it to be clean, tidy, and professional. And of course, check their reviews. Hearing from other people who have had a great experience is the best peace of mind you can get. Finally, a great supplier will be a breeze to deal with, clear about their requirements, and fully insured with all the right food hygiene credentials.
