Franchising event catering or festival catering services to outside services means placing a lot of trust in that service. You need to ensure that your visitors are happy and that your event goes off without any unwanted fuss. At Showtime Ice Cream we specialise in the provision of event catering units and ice cream vans; not only do we have the largest fleet of independently owned ice cream vans in the country but we complement this with hot and cold food and drink units. From licensed bars to baguette and carvery units we've got the event catering covered.
Event Catering
The Showtime Ice Cream event catering service provides you with peace of mind that your visitors or guests have access to high quality food, drink, and refreshments. Whether you're planning a large car boot sale, a country fare, or even an art festival our event catering units meet any taste and budget to ensure that everybody is happy.
Outsourcing event catering enables you to concentrate your efforts on other aspects of arranging your event. While you can manage the logistics of parking, ensuring that all the entertainment, shows, or stalls are set up and run properly we will deal with all the event catering requirements.
Types Of Event
Virtually every type of function can use professional event catering services. In the summer, car boot sales and fares are attended by hundreds of people and many of these people are looking for ice cream, burgers, or hot and cold drinks. Open days, charity events, and town or village fares should also offer some form of event catering. Providing visitors to any event with access to food and drink can help ensure that they stay longer and enjoy the event more.
Festival Catering
One of the highlights of the year is the festival season. As well as large music festivals, there are many alternative events. Art and culture festivals are attended by a large number of people, and while they all share one common interest they all have a need for access to good festival catering units too. Similarly to event catering, festival catering provides you with a means to prolong your visitor's stay and make any festival a resounding success. This can help attract greater profits and ensure that your next event is equally well attended.
Hot And Cold Food
As well as great quality ice cream vans we provide hot and cold food units. These units offer a range of desirable and high quality food that will appeal to your event guests. You can choose to have one specific type of unit for your event or opt for a selection so that your visitors have a wider variety of choice.
Burger grills offer burger stand food including burgers, cheeseburgers, chicken, and jumbo sausages. One of our more popular options is the hot carvery unit, which supplies a range of meats including Cumberland sausages, pork, and beef served in fresh bread. Fresh baguettes from the fresh baguette unit can be filled with hot or cold fillings to satisfy any hunger.
Hot And Cold Drinks
As well as food, we can provide event and festival catering units that serve hot and cold drinks. As well as ensuring that visitors are well hydrated, our fresh coffee units and licensed bars will specifically attract a large number of people. The Premium Coffee Unit serves hot drinks ranging from Espresso to tea and from chocolate to latte. To complement the drinks they also carry a good variety of cakes and muffins as the ideal accompaniment to a good hot drink.
Licensed Bars
There isn't an event when a licensed bar doesn't prove a popular form of event catering. Fully licensed bars can be hired from Showtime Ice Cream that include a variety of real beers and lagers as well as spirits and mixers to accommodate all tastes and ensure all guests are happy. As with all of our event and festival catering units, we ensure that the licensed bar is stocked with high quality produce and staffed by pleasant and friendly individuals. This, in turn, helps ensure that your event is considered a success by everybody that attends.
Ice Cream Vans
Showtime Ice Cream is proud to boast that we now have the largest fleet of independently owned ice cream van hire agencies the country. A soft ice cream van makes the ideal addition to your outdoor event, whether it's a hot summer day or a traditional British cloudy one. Kid's love to see an ice cream van and adults can enjoy the soft ice cream and iced lollies that are served too.
As well as the ice cream van, we also offer soft ice cream parlours. Servicing similar products to the ice cream van, the parlour provides alternative surroundings and gives people somewhere to retreat to in order to enjoy a great quality ice cream.
Product Ranges
As you can see, Showtime Ice Cream offers much more than an ice cream van service, although we do pride ourselves on our extensive fleet of vans. Hot and cold food comes in a variety of different types from burgers and sausages to a carvery or light refreshments. Drinks are also offered in a similarly extensive range from licensed bars, premium coffee units, and the ice cream vans. Whatever your event catering needs we'll be happy to provide the refreshments and help make your event a success.
